Device for storing and manipulating a radiation source, comprising: a safe for storing at least one capsule comprising a radioactive material, a transport element for moving the capsule through a transport tube connected to the safe and leading to an applicator, and a drive mechanism for driving the transport element. According to the invention, the capsule comprises an enriched low energy radiation source for administering gamma radiation in the range of 10-100 keV. For this purpose, a source is utilized having a sufficiently high specific activity for performing a high dose rate radiation treatment. <IMAGE>
