Summary

The provider uses a medical linear accelerator and multileaf collimator, or MLC, to deliver precise, high intensity radiation doses to a malignant tumor or specific areas within the tumor while minimizing the dose to surrounding normal tissues. He determines the treatment delivery based upon tumor shape and CT images along with computerized dose calculations. Providers use this type of radiation therapy to treat different types of cancers.
