Issue
The header values for RescaleSlope and RescaleIntercept were being overwritten to convert the image density to HU. This caused a mismatch between original data and output data on write.
Proposed Changes:
m_RescaleSlope,m_RescaleIntercept]RescaleToHUfunctionRescaleToHUas member function which only rescales member data within function scopeRescaleSlopeandRescaleInterceptvaluesThese changes maintain the original header data, and use HU-corrected values only when converting the image data to HU. They also update the header tests to check that the values are maintained as original.
