-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The APPLICATION ENTITY TITLE file (2006.588) is used to map Application Entity Titles to aliases and descriptive names.  It is
built from the entries in AETITLE.DIC.  
 
The APPLICATION ENTITY TITLE file is used for two purposes.  When a DICOM Service Class User (SCU) negotiates an association with
VistA, it may present a Called Application Entity Title that is different than one defined in the SCP_LIST.DIC.  The APPLICATION
ENTITY TITLE file may contain an entry for the SCU's Called Application Entity Title that maps it to one that is defined in 
SCP_LIST.DIC. This is required in order for the association to be accepted.  
 
The second purpose is to provide a mapping from the SCU's Calling Application Entity Title to a more descriptive name, which help
to identify it better.  In this case, if the SCU's Called Application Entity Title is one that is defined in the SCP_LIST.DIC, the
entry in the APPLICATION ENTITY TITLE file is optional.
