Abstract
Recently, due to problems in terms of illegal copying of medical image and the right ownership and authentication of data, it is necessary for us to study about those problems. In this study, we propose steganography with a method of the hiding information of high-resolution in digital medical image. The proposed algorithm is one of the way that inserts secret information by protecting ROI area which is regarded as and important feature of high-resolution digital medical image. As a result, the proposed method made it possible to insert secret information of massive storage and didn't affect the imperceptibility in medical image quality based on capacity and PSNR showed the all image quality of about 33.33dB.
