The dynamic micro-multileaf collimator (μMLC) provided by 3D Line, which consists of the μMLC and its controller as well as an associated planning system called Ergo++. A specific feature is the gantry sensor, which is integrated into the linac’s gantry and allows the system to work independently of the type or manufacturer of the linac (i.e., compatible with all accelerators on the market worldwide).
TheμMLC is double-focusing and has 24 pairs of 3.27 mm to 2.88 mm wide tungsten leaves. The tungsten leaves have a constant width of 4.7 mm, resulting in a maximum field size of 11.2 × 11cm². The prototype consisted of only 16 tungsten leaf pairs with a constant width of 3.6 mm, making it different from the μMLC.
The photograph below shows μMLC be attached to a linear accelerator.
