DCMTK

There are various issues with the current (rather old) implementation of DcmFileFormat::checkMetaHeaderValue():

• The method does not modify element values if the VR (of pre-existing elements) is incorrect.
• The method does not fully support newer attributes such as Source/Sending/Receiving Application Entity Title.
• The method does not make use of current dcmdata helper functions; the code is, therefore, unnecessarily complex.
• ...

This code certainly needs some revision.
