Description
High-powered, 10-MeV linear accelerators offer advantages for sterilization of medical products. A highly effective quality assurance program must be in place to ensure the appropriate dose is delivered to each product unit and that all required documentation is produced. The key elements of such a program are establishing the routine processing window for each product, maintaining process control and demonstrating compliance. (author)
