Title
Security mechanism for medical image information on PACS using invisible watermark
Abstract
The emerging digital revolution is impacting all areas of society, including medical areas. The era of digital hospital is coming and its success will depend on the rapid adaptation of emerging technology. Picture Archive and Communication System(PACS) could give the necessary competitive edge for medical institutions. Pacs digitizes captured images using the technique in Computed Radiography, stores them in massive storage devices, and transmits the patient's medical information(or images) to networked clinics and hospital wards, anywhere anytime. However, to be useful, the issues of possible fabrication and damages to images, and authentication have to be addressed. The watermark technique could provide some solution to these problems. This paper describles an improved secure medical image system addressing issues on PACS, accurate patient data, and privacy. Further, the proof of concept is demonstrated by experiment.
