Quality Products Needed in Neurosurgery

Improving the quality of locally produced equipment and increasing domestic production will be an advantage for patients as well as the government, said scientific secretary of the first Annual Iranian Congress of Spine Surgery held December 15-16 on Kish Island. “The costs of treating spinal disorders and pertinent neurological conditions put a heavy burden on patients, families and the government,” said Dr. Nader Afshar, IRNA reported. He also underscored the need to raise public awareness on common conditions such as spinal disc problems and spine curvature disorders for patients so that they seek the right treatment in a timely manner.
