What is it indicated for?

The Leksell GammaPlan (LGP) is designed for use with the Leksell Gamma Knife manufactured by Elekta Instrument, AB. The Leksell GammaPlan is intended to be used for planning the dosimetry of treatments in stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic radiation therapy. It processes the inputs of the health care professionals (Neurosurgeons, Radiation Therapists, Radiation Physicists) such that the desired radiation dose is provided by the Leksell Gamma Knife to a precisely defined target area within the cranium.

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