I am definitely not a person to ask for advice on producing official Debian packages, but I think the most obvious quirk with your DCMTK package is, that it places certain files below /usr/local. Official Debian packages must not do that because /usr/local is considered as the local sysadmin's domain. Maybe this should be fixed beforehand as potential sponsors will almost certainly complain about it.
The best idea to build Debian packages is start with
/usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules
Changing this examples leads normally to quiet good packages.
Kind regards
