In DICOM MPPS(Modality Performed Procedure Step), we can find the
attribute of Scheduled Protocol Code Sequence(0040, 0008). I want to
use it for the test of MPPS. However, it is hard to find them by
GOOGLE. Who know where to get them for processing my test. Thanks so
much.

Protocol Codes are generally specific to each site (there are no
standard code value sets). Your system must be configurable to use a
locally defined value set, including appropriate handling of the
Coding Scheme Designator and Coding Scheme Version (it is the
combination of the Coding Scheme Designator [and Version, when
present] and the Code Value that uniquely identifies the coded
concept).

See for example the codes used in the IHE Connectathon tests at:

When we publish the codes for the MESA tests, we create codes that are
obvious fakes. The goal is to bring attention to the requirement for
confguration and not have developers assume that there is one standard
set of codes (would that there were).
