Abstract (en)
[origin: CA3133881A1] The invention relates to a device comprising a radiation source and preferably a detector, between which a medical product is introduced, wherein the radiation source can be controlled by means of an open-loop and/or closed-loop control device and feedback from the detector or can be controlled by means of a result of dose mapping or a simulation. The method for sterilizing medical products comprises the following steps: introducing a medical product into a sterilization device; irradiating the medical product with a radiation source, preferably an X-radiation source, in the sterilization device; determining the radiation intensity at each position on the medical product; controlling and/or re-adjusting the radiation source according to the relationship, [determined in a reference measurement or simulation and] stored in the control device, between radiation intensity at the detector and minimum dose in the medical product at the corresponding point, such that the medical product is homogeneously irradiated and thus sterilized.
