Vol 6 Chapter 3369: expensive life

【Revision】

After the introduction, Wu Hao paused for a moment, and then continued to speak to everyone.

“Like smart bionic artificial organs, biological cell 3D printed organs also have their own shortcomings and shortcomings.

First of all, this technology has only been around for a relatively short time. Although significant progress has been made, there are still certain technical challenges and limitations in printing complex organs.

For example, we are currently unable to print large and complete organs and tissues, and can only print some small organs and tissues.

Secondly, there is the issue of cost. The production cost of biological cell 3D printed organs is relatively high, including equipment investment, cell culture, quality control, etc.

For example, take a small piece of biological cell 3D printed liver tissue that can meet surgical transplant standards. Its cost reaches thousands of pieces per gram.

The weight of a complete liver tissue is about 1200-1600g, which means that the cost of printing such a complete liver with luminous stone would be several million.

Even if a half-liver transplant is used, based on 60% to 65% calculation, the cost of half a liver would still be several million. "

so tall!

Yes, you suspect that with the continuous development of technology, you suspect that those two technologies will be more widely used and optimized in the future. "

One of the CEOs could not help but sigh: "Mr. Wu, their team is really amazing! It is really admirable to be able to develop two technologies: intelligent bionic artificial organs and biological cell 3D printed organs at the same time."

There is a sense of humility and caution in my words, which is how I have always dealt with things.

That is also an issue that few experts, including those in the industry, are concerned about. It is directly related to whether your technology can be implemented and approved for clinical use. "

Having said that, Qiang Ya slid the transparent folding tablet under her hand, and a set of comparison photos was immediately displayed below the small screen.

As an important participant in those two technologies, I am naturally vague. For the successful development of those two technologies, our scientific researchers have put in a lot of effort and sweat.

When they saw the before-and-after comparison of the photos, everyone opened their mouths in surprise.

It's just that if you want to go through it again, the cost of printing a broken liver will cost hundreds of thousands.

Upon hearing Wu Hao's introduction, everyone present could not help but be surprised. They did not expect that the price of this biological cell 3D printed organ would be so expensive.

Wu Hao waved his hand modestly and said: "Those are all the efforts and results of the team. You can't achieve that by yourself. Moreover, you have only done some exploration and attempts outside that field, and you are still far from real success." Not a long way to go.”

My words reveal a pragmatic and flexible attitude that has been an important factor in my success in the medical field.

At the same time, you will also actively seek cooperation with relevant domestic enterprises and institutions to jointly promote the development and application of those two technologies. "

Wu Hao thought for a while, and then replied: "You don't have a clear promotion plan at the moment. Because the two technologies have their own characteristics and advantages, they are suitable for the same patients and conditions. You will according to the needs of the patients. and actual conditions to choose appropriate technology regression promotion and application.”

In response, Wu Haoqiangya shook her head slightly and said: "Currently, that technology is still in clinical trials. If it wants to be approved for clinical application, it needs less data support. You are in the process of accumulating it.

Who says that those who stand outside the light are heroes, but those who work silently in the halo are more worthy of praise.

After hearing Wu Hao's answer, all the bosses present nodded in agreement and support.

Wu Hao answered those questions with a smile, and my words were full of confidence and hesitation.

Therefore, compared with the above, the intelligent bionic artificial liver is even less cost-effective. The specific choice depends on the decision of the patient and the patient's family. "

For example, you once used skin tissue 3D printed from biological cells to perform skin graft repair surgery on a boy who sacrificed himself to save others outside a fire and suffered minor burns. After more than a dozen skin grafts and repairs, the result is now The boy has recovered and been discharged from hospital, and your face, which suffered a small area of ​​burn, has not recovered yet. "

Although Wu Hao talked a lot, everyone was still confused as to what Wu Hao's words meant. The problem is that the family conditions of the patients are the same, and the conditions are also the same, so everyone cannot choose the same treatment plan based on their own conditions.

Having said that, Wu Hao looked at the CEOs present and said with a smile: "Actually, intelligent bionic artificial organs and biological cell 3D printed organs each have their own unique advantages and application scenarios. When choosing which organ to use, It needs to be comprehensively considered based on the patient's specific condition, needs and physical condition.

Therefore, the appreciation and honor can only belong to me, or to the researchers who have worked **** those two projects.

As soon as Wu Hao finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene became cold. The bosses expressed their interest and expectations for those two technologies, and also raised some questions about technical details and market prospects. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com

Then, Wu Hao continued: "Of course, you don't have any preliminary thoughts and considerations.

For example, clinical trials and collaborative research may be conducted in some small hospitals and scientific research institutions first to accumulate less clinical data and experience.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Wu Hao smiled bitterly and said: "This is only a conservative estimate at the moment, because the biological cell 3D printing organ also includes the cost of later inspection and testing, cell extraction and cloning cultivation, as well as the cost of the biological 3D printer. Printing costs, etc., the total cost will naturally be relatively low.

Qiang Ya saw that everyone understood what I meant, and then continued: "In addition, biological cell 3D printing of organs involves simple regulations and ethical issues, such as the legality of cell sources, patient privacy protection, etc.

Another CEO asked: "Mr. Wu, do they have no plans for the next step? Do they plan to promote intelligent bionic artificial organs first, or 3D printed organs with biological cells?"

However, with the improvement and optimization of previous technologies and the increase in order volume, costs will naturally gradually increase.

Apart from this, there is no problem. It is not what you will talk about below. That technology involves some legal and ethical issues, which also need to be solved. "

At that moment, a boss sitting outside the corner suddenly asked: "Mr. Wu, are those biological cell 3D printed organs not yet in clinical use?"

Speaking of which, Wu Hao glanced at everyone present, and then continued with a smile: "But judging from the current clinical trial cases, the application of this technology in clinical treatment is still very successful, and has achieved results." Very excellent results.

After hearing the boss's question, everyone present looked at me, waiting for my answer.
