Abstract: A method for inspecting at least one vehicle with an inspection system, the inspection system and the at least one vehicle being configured to move relative to one another during an inspection of at least one part of the vehicle, the method including controlling, by a controller, an inspection dose of inspection radiation generated by a radiation source such that, during the inspection of the at least one part of the vehicle by the inspection radiation, the inspection dose remains substantially equal to a predetermined inspection dose, wherein controlling the inspection dose includes the controller obtaining information representative of a speed of the relative movement of the system and the vehicle during the inspection of the at least one part of the vehicle, and the controller controlling the radiation source, based on the obtained information.
