Abstract

Tele-ophthalmology has gained a lot of popularity as it involves retinal fundus images which can be analyzed for identification of severe diseases like diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. With this increasing popularity, requirement for medical data confidentiality and privacy has also increased during transmission or storage. To meet this challenge, this paper propose an efficient and lossless cryptosystem based upon chaotic theory for encryption of medical fundus images. In the proposed encryption scheme a strategic combination of scrambling and substitution architecture is proposed which complements each other. The proposed scheme of encryption for fundus images is challenging as these images are 3-D color image and cannot be compressed as compression may not be able to retain all relevant medical information. For performance analysis, the proposed algorithm has been evaluated for perceptual and cryptographic security. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method is lossless and resistant against attacks making the proposed scheme suitable for real time applications.
