Chapter 1451: Chapter 1080 Chapter 1451: Chapter 1080 After discussing tumor treatment methods, a decision was made to embark on a new path, allowing the research on NK cell therapy and K virus therapy to proceed simultaneously. Both of these topics are quite costly; for others, even gathering funds for a single project can be difficult, but for Yang Ping, money is not an issue. Not to mention two approaches–even eight or ten would be easy for him; having money means being able to act boldly.

The recombination and cultivation of NK cells also require a certain amount of time; it can’t just be achieved on demand. However, with the cooperation of several major laboratories to complete this project, the process will not take any detours.

Sisi’s illness can also be temporarily controlled. After the last treatment with the K virus therapy, the tumor shrank to some extent, thus buying some critical time. Yang Ping calculated the time and believed that NK cells could be cultivated within the buffer time obtained. As for whether NK cell therapy will be effective afterward, that is uncertain; one can only take one step at a time and feel the stones when crossing the river, since all the current treatments are innovative with no precedents to refer to.

Under Manstein’s facilitation, Yang Ping made contact with a Nobel Prize winner who specializes in cell therapy. Through numerous email communications, Yang Ping gained a wealth of new knowledge from this scholar, and essentially mastered the current direction and level of cell therapy development in the world.

Papers generally have a certain delay; they are only published when the results are mature. To get the latest research progress, real-time communication is still required. Yang Ping has so many friends in the academic circle, ensuring the timeliness of his access to scientific research information.

In the afternoon, after finishing his work, Yang Ping opened his computer to check his emails, many of which were sent by doctors he had once taught, mostly containing materials on difficult cases. Sometimes they would also report to Yang Ping about their recent work progress.

Ivan’s surgery on the Italian girl has also been completed. His success this time was inseparably linked to Yang Ping’s full support; Ivan used Yang Ping’s skin expansion technology to obtain large areas of high-quality skin grafts, which would have been difficult to perform so perfectly for a severely burned patient without these high-quality grafts.

Moreover, Ivan meticulously planned the surgery using the Digital Human model from Nandu Medical University before the operation, which made his pre-surgical planning very detailed and precise.

Ivan sent Yang Ping many photos from before, during, and after the surgery; the patient has now had their stitches removed, and the postoperative edema has completely subsided. Yang Ping enlarged these photos to compare, and the results of plastic surgery were excellent, one could hardly tell this was a man-made beauty. It goes to show that Ivan, being the world’s number one ranked plastic surgeon, has turned this plastic surgery into a model in the field of aesthetic plastic surgery.

Yang Ping believes the only aspect that did not score full marks was bone shaping, which should originally be the job of orthopedic surgeons, but Ivan also performed this task to a top standard, only lacking in Yang Ping’s eyes by a slight degree.

If Yang Ping were to perform this surgery, he believes he definitely couldn’t achieve the same level of perfection as Ivan, because Yang Ping lacks certain accumulation in aesthetics, and an aesthetic cultivation is an essential quality for a top-tier plastic surgeon.

Yang Ping is skilled in all kinds of surgeries except plastic surgery, as in his view, the purpose of performing surgery is to treat and save people. Plastic surgery does not align with his ideology, and he also lacks profound aesthetic education, which means he can perform rational surgeries perfectly but cannot achieve the artistic part that relies on feel. A plastic surgery lacking that artistic touch, no matter how well performed, would lack spirit and come across as mechanical and rigid.

Aside from discussing medical issues, Ivan also recommended his own baby formula, hoping that Yang Ping’s son could try it when he grows a bit older. When Yang Ping’s son was not yet born, Ivan had snatched the baby formula supply rights from August’s waters, for which he purchased a baby formula factory, dairy farms, and so on, in New Zealand.

However, after Yang Ping’s son was born, Xiao Su planned to breastfeed, and she had ample milk supply, so they did not consider baby formula, making Ivan’s unnecessary.

August wrote saying he was making rapid progress in spinal surgery, especially in the surgical correction of scoliosis. In Europe, August is unchallenged; he is not only proficient in Yang’s osteotomy but also carried out a large number of external fixation treatments for scoliosis. Recently, he has accumulated numerous experimental cases of precise epiphyseal blocking for treating scoliosis, ranking his level in spinal surgery only second to that of the Surgical Research Institute at Sanbo Hospital in the entire world.

In the European academic community, August now firmly surpasses Milton from the United Kingdom, finally ending their historically equal and competitive standing. Ever since his training at Sanbo Hospital, both his ideology and techniques have leaped, and he is no longer in the same league as Milton. Now Milton frequently comes to Germany to observe August’s surgeries, which signifies Milton’s submission to him.

Jonathan from Mayo has been making rapid progress in brainstem tumor surgeries. After learning some of Yang Ping’s methods on brainstem tumors, he took Yang Ping’s anatomy diagrams of the brainstem and studied them extensively. Utilizing Yang Ping’s surgical approaches and methods, he performed numerous successful surgeries, achieving an unmatched status in North America. In fact, for Jonathan, his main pursuit is a personal breakthrough, considering he was already an authority in North America’s neurosurgery field.
