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:

Item

Coding Scheme 
Designator

No. of items

Code Value/Code Meaning

Procedure content

JJ1017T

1

Specified in Section 5.3 

Target region

JJ1017P

1

Specified in Section 5.4 

13

Imaging direction

JJ1017D

0-N

Specified in Section 5.5 

13

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.

This SPS schedules 2 exposures: Chest AP and Chest LL

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

RIS mapping defines how incoming worklist attributes from the RIS are mapped to the SPS elements.
