## Indications for use
The MMLC is intended to assist the radiation oncologist team in the delivery of radiation to well defined target volumes while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs from excess radiation. With Radionics XPlan Conformal Treatment Planning Software or treatment planning system, the MMLC enables static conformal treatments to be performed with finely shaped field patterns. In this application, the MMLC performs the same function as customized beam shaping blocks, and circular or cut block collimators, which have been used for many years.
