Popis: In order to secure the exchanged medical images in telemedicine, we propose in this work two blind watermarking approaches for the medical images protection. In the first scheme a combination of DCT and Schur decomposition is performed. In order to obtain a good compromise between robustness and imperceptibility, the integration is performed in the medium frequencies of the image. In the second scheme, the combination of DWT and Schur decomposition provide a more robust watermark distribution. Imperceptibility and robustness experimental results shows that the proposed methods maintain a high quality watermarked images and are very robust against several conventional attacks. These schemes allow the protection of the patient's information and thus ensure the confidentiality of personal data.
