I had a clinical at imaging of angiography. It was basically you put tube into the body with looking at x-ray.
It was very impressive how the doctor did easily and fast.
There was a patient with liver failure. He is very skinny but tummy.
I don't know if you have ever seen the pic of starving children in Africa.
He was just like that.
The doctor put tube and connect to 1000ml bottle and he filled the 2300ml (1.5bottle)
Basically he cannot handle all fluid in liver and leak to third space.
I couldn't believe how much human can hold water in the place which is not supposed to.
There is another patient who fell the tree in childhood and was coma for a month
As a result, he has mental retardation. Also schizophrenia, depression and tumor in testicles.
His testicle is bigger than two soft ball,,, maybe half of basketball.
He got CT scan and biopsy. But it scared him and he ended up urinating on the CT scan.
Even worse, the doctor poked his major artery in accident. (procedure location was very hard and close to artery).Even even worse, he does not have enough clot factors.
It means he cannot stop bleeding.
I don't know what happened to this patient after because I was stuck in Angiography.
Maybe I should keep these rare experiences at clinical now on.
