Reason

Varian Enhanced Dynamic Wedges (EDW) or Siemens Virtual Wedges (VW) files can be loaded into incorrect energies using treatment unit (TU) storing. No warning or consistency checking done for EDW or VW files when adding these to the database. Treatment unit storing should not allow addition of an EDW or VW file for a certain energy beam to a collapsed cone model file for a different energy. Currently the user is not warned when there is a mismatch.
