Fragile (フラジャイル)

What's the number one thing you doctors should do?

It's to determine a clean, simple treatment based on collected data.

So what the hell is all of this?

Can you quit it with this crap?

It makes me ashamed to be called a doctor.

Please let me join the Pathology Department!

I'll lend this to you.

Tell me what it's afflicted with.

If you can't do something this easy, we don't need you here.

Looks like the Pathology Department's trying to give the full diagnosis themselves!

You have to perform more tests to find out the type of cancer!

That's enough.

You trying to kill your patient?

No matter what...

He stands by his diagnoses with absolute faith.

There's no room for doubt.

There's a chance a larger tumour is present in the abdomen.

What the Pathology Department suggests is

you perform a CT scan on his abdomen immediately.

I just couldn't understand a thing.

All I know is how to treat patients.

I don't know how to save lives at all.

I'm sorry for letting you down.

You pass.

I pass?

If you want to give it a shot...

Then come to the Pathology Department.

I'll do it.

Please let me join the Pathology Department!

subs by kurokouchi on d-addicts/livejournal did you pay for this? you some kinda moron?

For every group of 1,000 people in Japan,

there are 2.4 doctors.

Without a doubt, there aren't enough of them.

So doctors are always pressed for time.

Whenever you try to tell a doctor what's wrong with you,

the truth is...

Most of those doctors...

... spend only 10 seconds thinking of the diagnosis.

Here's what a pathology report looks like.

The samples come from other departments and have to be checked under a microscope,

and it's our job to fill out the diagnosis.

Got it!

The departments' doctors then use this report as a basis to confirm their diagnoses and find the right treatment.

Right!

Good morning!

Good morning!

Mornin'.

Thanks a lot.

I'm sorry, Morii-san, but...

I know this is a stomach biopsy, so...

Isn't this in group III?

My talents as a lab technician include creating samples using machines and putting them into slides.

But not teaching you how to make diagnoses!

I can't teach squat either.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning!

G'morn.

Dr. Miyazaki?

How's pathology working out for you?

Right...

I've got a whole bunch of stuff I have to memorise, but I'm trying!

That's Dr. Kishi for you.

As the only power in the Pathology Department, he's top class.

Isn't that right, Dr. Kishi?

Answer me, please.

Sure.

Don't "sure" me.

You're going to train this one well.

Right?

Well, up 'till now everyone who joined us quit immediately after.

While Dr. Kishi's diagnoses are highly accurate,

all these fights with the other doctors cause too much trouble!

Stop being such a bother!

Look what you did...

I'll keep that in mind.

The Pathology Department is the hardest to provide for.

So if you keep making trouble, whether you're the best or not,

you won't leave the hospital any choice.

I hope you mean what you say.

You too, Dr. Miyazaki.

Please cooperate.

Of course!

Stop making decisions on your own.

What's "leaving the hospital any choice" mean?

It's about dissolving our department.

Still, if this department goes poof,

pathologists are in-demand, so there's no need to worry.

Well...

If you got any skills, anyhow.

That's why you have to teach her properly!

You got it?

No, um...

But about this...

If things pile up, I won't be able to go home by 5.

I'm sorry?

"If teaching in-between work means I have to do overtime, then hell no,"

is what he means.

Well that's fine by me!

I'll do my best on my own!

Good morning!

Good morning.

How'd it go yesterday?

Poorly.

10 seconds in and I wanted to leave.

It was a blind date.

Isn't 10 seconds too quick?

Well, it only takes 10 seconds to figure out whether you'd like a person or not.

Right, Dr. Kishi?

Obviously I couldn't leave in just 10 seconds.

So I suffered for 5 whole minutes instead.

Wasn't it awkward?

You're a doctor, aren't you?

Yes...

When you're called straight from the hospital, you can't just leave.

Anyway, you're studying pathology, right? Can you do it?

Well, I can't say if I can handle it or not, but...

Say, tell me...

... when's the last time you had a man?

No, no! There's no-one in my life!

You're so easy to read! You cutiepie!

I like you!

Please don't tease me!

She's real easy to get, isn't she?

10 seconds, huh...

Yep! 10 seconds!

I'll go ahead.

Thanks for everything today.

Um, what am I supposed to do?

If you ain't got work, then go home.

Sure, but...

Thanks for today's help.

Here's to another long night.

Now, then...

Morii-san, can I borrow this?

It's fine, but...

I just want to compare my work with Dr. Kishi's, is all.

You're studying, huh?

I didn't get to accomplish anything all day, so...

I'll do my best.

Isn't it okay to take your time?

I'm just saying, like...

Well, your goal right now is to pass the exam and be a certified pathologist, right?

Just taking the exams requires 4 years of pathological experience.

So I'm saying it's fine to use that for studying.

After taking the specialisation exam...

You'll be doing pathology for the rest of your life.

I know.

Did you know?

The passing mark for the certification exam is 60%.

It's all right to get 40% of it wrong?

If it were real life, it'd be a misdiagnosis!

It's not like you need a perfect score to pass the general doctors' board exams, either.

I got 80% there.

Don't get cocky after getting 20% of it misdiagnosed.

I'm just teasing.

Give it your all.

Right!

Thank you so much.

We need a direct current!

We're on our way!

Doctor, we need you here!

Yoji Otsuka, 50 year old male.

His wife discovered him unconscious in their home.

Was it alcohol?

About how much does he drink?

I'm sorry, but I don't know.

It's likely acute alcohol poisoning.

Dr. Kuraki, come here please!

I'm coming.

I doubt he was drinking at all!

We haven't got any alcohol at home,

and we don't just buy it out of nowhere...

I'm sorry, but please wait outside.

Take him to line 2.

Give me a blood cell count and his biochemistry.

Yes, sir!

Take a CAT scan of his head, too.

Yes!

There's blood in his urine.

Give this to Pathology just in case.

Yes, sir.

Um...

Dr. Kuraki!

I'll leave it to you.

Right.

Yes, what is it?

What do I do...

Oh, no...

How long has Dr. Miyazaki been out back?

5 minutes should be fine for her.

Hurry and take an X-ray! There're more coming in!

I'm sorry, but right now I'm...

Stop wasting time!

I'm sorry!

Go and get it done!

Hand me that.

Here.

I'm pretty sure that's too tough a job for Dr. Miyazaki.

All she has to do is hand out a paper.
