Alternative definition : BRIDG 5.3: A set of scanning parameter values necessary to perform a single scan in
the acquisition protocol. [adapted from NEMA XR 25-2010, https://www.nema.org/Standards/Pages/Computed-Tomography-Dose-Check.aspx]
EXAMPLE(S): A chest Protocol might include three elements: two localizer CT radiographs
(AP and Lateral) and a single helical scan, each of which would be described in separate
steps with different parameter values. OTHER NAME(S): NOTE(S): Given that this subclass
of ImagingProcessProtocolElement actually names the process as Acquisition and includes
that word in the name of the class, the word Process is omitted from the class name.;
