Abstract

Data hiding in the image can cause permanent distortion (irreversible), in other applications such as medical images, distortion can cause misdiagnosis. To overcome these problems, a special scheme is required for the embedding data on medical image. Reversible data hiding is a scheme that can restore the image to original image without distortion after the embedded information is extracted. Difference Expansion (DE) is one of the schemes in reversible data hiding that is simple and easy to implement. In this paper, we propose two schemes based a hybrid combination of DE to increase on capacity and visual quality. Medical image has characteristics is the large of smooth block areas, in which DE method is applied to the non-smooth areas image. We used four different medical images to evaluate the proposed scheme. The results showed that the proposed scheme has a high capacity and better visual quality than the original scheme and similar schemes have been proposed previously. Embedding capacity of the proposed scheme is up to 0.66 bpp with visual quality of PSNR value is up to 48 dB.
