Authenticating Medical Images through Repetitive Index Modulation Based Watermarking

چکیده
In this work we propose a Repetitive Index Modulation (RIM) based digital watermarking scheme for authentication and integrity verification of medical images. Exploiting the fact that many types of medical images have significant background areas and medically meaningful Regions Of Interest (ROI), which represent the actual contents of the images, the scheme uses the contents of the ROI to create a content-dependent watermark and embeds the watermark in the background areas. Therefore when any pixel of the ROI is attacked, the watermark embedded in the background areas will be different from the watermark calculated according to the attacked contents, making the authentication unsuccessful. Because the creation of the watermark is contentdependent and the watermark is only embedded in the background areas, the proposed scheme can actually protect the content without distorting it.

متن کاملNested Quantization Index Modulation for Reversible Watermarking and Its Application to Healthcare Information Management Systems
Digital watermarking has attracted lots of researches to healthcare information management systems for access control, patients' data protection, and information retrieval. The well-known quantization index modulation-(QIM-) based watermarking has its limitations as the host image will be destroyed; however, the recovery of medical images is essential to avoid misdiagnosis. In this paper, we pr...
متن کاملReview of Image Watermarking Technique for Medical Images
in this article, we focus on the complementary role of watermarking with respect to medical information security (integrity, authenticity ...) and management. We review sample cases where watermarking has been deployed. We conclude that watermarking has found a niche role in healthcare systems, as an instrument for protection of medical information, for secure sharing and handling of medical im...
