what can be found by FINDSCU ??

I am trying to use findscu to find some fields as below:
FINDSCU -aet server_AE -P -k 0008,0052=IMAGE -k 0010,0020 -k 0018,1030
Server_name port_number

However, only the value for 0010,0020(Patient ID) is listed, while the
value for 0018,0030(Protocol Name) could not show up...

Can someone please tell me exactly what fields can be included in
FINDSCU and whether there is any way to modify the behavior so that I
could find more fields??

Thanks.

-P is Patient Root information model query. You've specified query at
the image level. This implies you have to supply unique value key
attributes at the patient, study and series levels of the information
model. Protocol name is normally something queried on the modality
worklist. It might be included in the image but would probably be
buried in a sequence. What were you trying to query?

Let's say that I am trying to query 0008,0070 for Manufacturer? Please
tell me how to write the findscu command?

Thanks.
