What is it indicated for?

The Slice Editor Imaging Software Utility is an image manipulation and contouring software package for use in surgical and treatment planning.

The Slice Editor can replace the IMEX contouring utility as the component for contouring anatomies in all applications in which IMEX is currently utilized.

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