What is it indicated for?

The ARTP (Anti Tumor Radiation Treatment Planning System) is a radiation therapy treatment planning system for radiation dose planning and simulation of patients undergoing external beam treatment in the oncology clinic. ARTP is used to plan and simulate radiation treatments with linear accelerators and other similar teletherapy devices with x-ray energies from 1 to 25MV, as well as Cobalt-60 and electron energies from 1 to 25 MeV.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
