    Abstract: A disinfection system includes a first UVC radiation source and a second opposing UVC radiation source. The first and second UVC radiation sources are positioned such that a gap exists therebetween. The first UVC radiation source is configured to emit UVC radiation across the gap toward the second UVC radiation source and the second UVC radiation source is configured to emit UVC radiation across the gap toward the first UVC radiation source. A vertically-oriented conveyor system is partially positioned in the gap. The vertically-oriented conveyor system includes a plurality of upper sprockets connected by an upper track, a plurality of lower sprockets connected by a lower track, at least one vertical band connected to the upper track and the lower track, and a motor configured to simultaneously drive the upper track and the lower track such that the at least one vertical band is translated through the gap between the first and second UVC radiation sources. At least one medical garb is mounted to the at least one vertical band such that when the at least one vertical band is translated through the gap an outer surface of the at least one medical garb is exposed to UVC radiation emitted from the first UVC radiation source and an inner surface of the at least one medical garb is exposed to UVC radiation emitted from the second UVC radiation source.
