I just noticed you applied python tags. Your question has nothing to do with python. — ColonelFazackerley, May 03 '19 at 18:34

Eclipse (and other Aria apps) will not import compressed DICOM. Changing the tag alone, isn't enough. You need to decompress the image before importing. This can be done with GDCM.

gdcmconv --raw compressed.dcm uncompressed.dcm
