Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleClinical Assessment of Watermarked Medical ImagesJasni Mohamad Zain, Abdul Rani M. Fauzi, Azian A. AzizProblem statement: Digital watermarking provides security to medical images. Watermarking in Region Of Interest (ROI) however distorts medical images but it is known that the resulting loss of fidelity is visually imperceptible. Approach: Clinical assessment will objectively evaluate the distortion on medical images to see whether or not medical diagnosis is altered. We used 75 medical images consisting of x-rays, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 8,125 accessesView PDFCite
