Note on Japanese Protocol Codes
In Japan, the use of protocol codes is slightly different. See the guidelines of the JIRA and JAHIS [JAPAN].
Each Scheduled
Protocol Code Sequence
consists of the following information:

(Table copied from [JAPAN], p.9)
Each item mentioned in the table is wrapped in a scheduled protocol code sequence item. As shown in the
table, for each item a different coding scheme designator is used.
In practice, a triplet (with the imaging direction possibly omitted) refers to a single Exposure Type in the
"Workstation" exposure tree.

"Workstation" can be configured for the use of the Japanese system of Protocol Codes (JJ1017) by means of
the "Workstation Service & Configuration Tool".
