Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a radiation treatment system. The radiation treatment system may include an MLC having at least one layer of leaves and at least one block. Each of the at least one layer of leaves may include a first group of leaves and a second group of leaves. At least a portion of the leaves may be movable to block pathways of a first portion of the radiation beams within a radiation area. A second portion of the radiation beams may be incident at a treatment region of the radiation treatment system. The MLC may be situated in a first plane. The at least one block may be situated in a second plane different from the first plane. The at least one block may be configured to shield at least a portion of leaking radiation beams within an end area.
