A video showing a US woman leading a dance party in an operating theater just before undergoing a double mastectomy has gone viral online.

一段一名美國女子在進行雙乳切除手術前，率眾跳舞的影片在網路上造成轟動。

Deborah Cohan, a trained gynecologist, can be seen getting down — dressed in full pre-op gown and colorful protective cap — with a team of anesthetists and other surgical staff.

影片畫面可以看到，專業婦科醫師黛博拉．柯漢，穿戴全套病患手術衣與彩色手術帽，與一組麻醉團隊及其他手術工作人員共舞。

By Thursday more than 1.4 million people had viewed the 6-minute video showing them dancing to the Beyonce song "Get Me Bodied," Cohan gyrating energetically with a huge smile on her face.

至週四為止，已超過140萬人點閱這段6分鐘的影片，片中顯示他們隨著碧昂絲的歌曲「貼身共舞」起舞，柯漢笑容洋溢地起勁迴旋。

"Nothing brings me greater joy than catalysing others to dance, move, be in their bodies," she said in a blog post before the operation at the University of California at San Francisco （UCSF） Medical Center on Tuesday.

「沒有比帶動其他人擺動身軀跳舞，帶給我更大的喜悅。」她週二在加州大學舊金山分校（UCSF）醫學中心進行手術前，在部落格上寫道。

In her "Deborah’s Healing Journey" blog, posted on the website of non-profit Caring Bridge, she asked people to film or picture themselves dancing to the Beyonce tune, wherever they were.

在她發表於非營利組織「愛心橋」網站上的部落格「黛博拉的醫治之旅」上，她要求人們無論置身何處，拍攝他們隨同碧昂絲這支曲調起舞的影片或照片。

"Are you with me people?" the Harvard-educated obstetrician-gynecologist at UCSF asked in the post, which had over 100,000 visits, and which also featured a picture of her hugging a tree, dressed only in bra and panties.

「你們與我同在嗎？」這位在哈佛大學受教育、任職於UCSF的婦產科醫師貼文提問，該部落格已逾10萬人造訪，該部落格也以一張她僅穿胸罩與內褲、張手環抱一棵樹的照片為特色。
