In order for users to continue using plans that were created with MuriPlan 2.1.2 or earlier or MuriPlan 2.0.x versions, some special steps need to be followed using the TreatmentPlanConverter utility software.

  1. Ascertain if the user has any treatment plans they would like to keep for use with MuriPlan 2.2.0.
  2. Collect all the plans the user would like to keep.
  3. Download and install the TreatmentPlanConverter software.
  4. Follow the user guide for instructions on using the software.
  5. After converting the plans, open MuriPlan 2.2.0 and ensure that the converted plans load properly.
  6. You can optionally leave the TreatmentPlanConverter program installed on the customer computer.
