AEOI Chief Mohammad Eslami on Monday inaugurated the first clinic that employs plasma technology for the treatment of wounds.
Pointing to the construction of three plasma-stimulated wound healing clinics in the cities of Varamin, Qom and Karaj, Eslami said 50 such clinics will be launched across Iran within the next year.
He noted that the plasma technologies developed by the AEOI have also been employed for the treatment of cancers and cardiac diseases in cooperation with medical universities.
Iran is currently producing 50 types of radiopharmaceuticals for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, he stated.
In December 2022, the AEOI chief said Iran aims to become a global hub for manufacturing deuterium drugs.
The AEOI launched a second phase of its deuterium production unit in the Arak Heavy Water Reactor Facility in central Iran in April 2021.
