Early the next morning, Wu Ting received a call from Lu Xuejun.
Their department had admitted a patient with late-stage cancer related to Hepatitis B, and a consultation was needed. Cai Qi had organized it, inviting Huo Yun and Wu Ting to participate.
Director Huo was quite accomplished in the field of late-stage HBV-related cancer, while Wu Ting was simply there to observe.
Cai Qi felt terrible for this patient, a man who wasn't even forty years old.
A tumor diagnosis is a devastating blow for anyone, especially when it's already late-stage liver cancer.
Huo Yun and Cai Qi both felt a sense of helplessness. The truth was that current medical technology was still not advanced enough. There was little they could do for primary liver cancer caused by Hepatitis B.
A large portion of China's cancer patients suffer from liver cancer, and 86% to 92% of those cases are caused by Hepatitis B.
