Challenge

As medical device sterilization validation is most often considered after a device has been fully designed and built, any issues that occur during sterilization result in significant costs and delays. Can computer modeling be used to consider sterilization earlier in the product development process to lower costs and retire risks earlier? Easy-to-use, powerful, and accurate Monte Carlo simulation tools which enable non-expert users to develop medical device sterilization strategies much earlier in the product life cycle.

Outcomes

DFS significantly shortened Medical Device product development cycles and reduced costs through implementation of sterilization strategies early in the design process. It provides precise and accurate radiation dose mapping for complex and sensitive medical devices. Design iteration was enabled without expensive prototyping and costly empirical testing late in product development is eliminated.
