A new medical device used in joint surgeries has been developed by a group of Iranian researchers and unveiled in the Iranian city of Tabriz in East Azarbaijan province.

The Riton 10-80 arthroscopy shaver blade is the first Iranian product with IRC standards which is approved by the Health Ministry.

The device has been designed in seven models and has a high performance, a report by the Iranian government’s official website, dolat.ir, said.
