What is it indicated for?

Nucletron Intracavitary Applicator Sets: Vaginal CT/MR, Standard CT/MR, Ring CT/MR and Fletcher-Williamson are intended for use with the Nucletron remote afterloading equipment, mHDR, mHDR-Classic and mPOR, for intracavitary brachytherapy. The applicators provide a means of delivering the prescribed radiation dose to the treatment area. The applicator is a closed system to prevent the radioactive source from coming in contact with body fluids.

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