Pinnacle : Points
(POIs, Dmax, Loc)
Description
Pinnacle utilizes four main types of points. Isocenters correspond to the center of all beams and placed by the planner, POIs (Points of Interest) are user-specified, MaxDosePoint is the Dmax point within the plan while LaserLocalizer is the initial setup/localization point (often marked by BBs from the initial CT scan).
