       * A specific model of a target, OAR, or other structure. A physician may provide an initial target contour and a treatment plan generated using this information. The physician may later (using the same CT image set) provide a revised target contour. Rather than import this revision as a new structure or override the original, you may specify this new contour as a variant of the original. Each contour may have only a single "active" variant and the plan will automatically update based on the selection of the active variant. However, in some cases it is not desirable to update the plan, so the user may also choose to lock the plan and simply recompute DVH and other volume based statistics based on the new active variant geometry. In either case, variants can be used to streamline workflows and prevent accidental misuse of out-dated contours.       * A specific model of a target, OAR, or other structure.

-    * A detailed model of a proton therapy treatment. Most aspects of the patient planning information are stored here (e.g. Beams, Fraction Groups, Optimization Information, and Dose Results). A Plan will specify the portion of the Prescription it should meet and physicians will publish (approve) a Plan to indicate it is ready to proceed to QA and (if successful) on to actual patient treatment. __There should be only one "published" Plan per Prescription__.+    * A detailed model of a proton therapy treatment.

Plans may optionally contain a fluence override vector that will be used in place of the actual optimized fluence results from the plan (note there are no UI tools to add such overrides and they must be added via user controlled scripts).
