Survey on Securing Medical Image Transmission using Visual Cryptography Techniques

Abstract

Visual cryptography scheme is a cryptographic technique which allows visual information text or image to be encrypted in such a way that the decryption can be performed by the human visual system and without the aid of computers. It encodes the secret image into shares of different patterns. Visual Cryptography is done on black and white image as well as on color image. This paper includes the literature survey regarding Visual Cryptography techniques for secure medical image transmission.
