Description
Rationale for Correction:
Very large uncompressed Pixel Data may exceed the size limit (2^32-2) of the data element, yet be required for specific applications
that need the information in one file but can tolerate fragmentation into frames (e.g., dual-personality DICOM-TIFF WSI files).
Add a Transfer Syntax that uses the encapsulation mechanism (sequence items in the Pixel Data element), which permits unlimited
length Pixel Data (within the limit of 2^32-1 frames due to the VR of Number of Frames.
