Abstract

With the establishment of medical information system, lots of medical images are stored in computer and transmitted among hospitals by network. Once the medical images are stolen or abused, the rights of the patients will suffer violation. The paper proposes a secret sharing scheme to protect the security of the medical images. No one can obtain any information from one of the shared images unless the authorized people. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme not only protect the security of the medical images, but also recover the medical images without distortion.

A (t, n) Secret Sharing Scheme for Image Encryption
CISP '08: Proceedings of the 2008 Congress on Image and Signal Processing, Vol. 3 - Volume 03

This paper introduces a new (t, n) secret sharing scheme for image encryption. The proposed method encrypts the secret image into two images as the same size of the original image, which one is the public image (called the encrypted image) and another ...
A grouped-scalable secret image sharing scheme

This paper addresses the problem of sharing the secret image among several groups with different priorities, resulting in a scheme of grouped-scalable secret image sharing. Our scheme is based on the concepts of bit-plane decomposition and Shamir's (k, n)...
Medical image security and EPR hiding using Shamir's secret sharing scheme

Medical applications such as telediagnosis require information exchange over insecure networks. Therefore, protection of the integrity and confidentiality of the medical images is an important issue. Another issue is to store electronic patient record (...
