Description
Summary:The process of content confidentiality of the medical diagnostic reports and the scanned image of patients among doctors with balancing proficiency for mutual dealing will provide utmost care through faster and significant decisions. The medical field's present-day technology with information technology has made it possible to deliver and distribute digital information in a more comfortable way at a faster rate. This simpleness of the content makes the issue of exhibiting the transmitted digital content on the network with the chance of illegal interception. Traditional cryptographic mechanisms follow the trend of encrypting the content before transmission to improve content confidentiality. However, the encrypted information's visual aspect makes the intruder focus more on the range, leading to malicious attacks. Hence the routine of data hiding has received substantial aid as an alternative way to ensure information security. This paper presents a biomedical data concealment procedure with Sudoku based scrambling on Biomedical DICOM image and Queen Traversal pattern for locating the pels over the DICOM image. It hides the confidential medical data in the scrambled or encrypted cover images. Experimental outcomes establish the efficacy of the system viz-a-viz respective parameters of interest.
