“The reloading and recharging of Tehran's Gamma system initially have the impact of reducing the time required for irradiating medical items to two and a half minutes,” Mohammad Eslami, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), said on Tuesday.
This will in turn boost efficiency by more than four times, he added.
Eslami explained that irradiation of medical consumables is a standard requirement to ensure their safety within the healthcare sector.
He pointed out that the Tehran Gamma Irradiation Facility plays a major role in this respect, providing services to the country’s healthcare system round the clock.
