Abstract

As security is very crucial in almost every sector of services nowadays, watermarking is more
or less an important mechanism in securing vital information such as medical images. Water
marking aimed at providing secure medical images through integrity verification, such that
unauthorized person cannot be able to modify it. In a bid to find a secured watermarking
technique which prevents a medical image from degradation, this research explores a
mechanism known as Hybrid Transformed Watermarking. Two mechanisms are employed
that include Discreet Cosine Transform (DCT) and Discreet Wavelet Transform (DWT). The
two techniques were combined to transform a medical image with the intent of providing
authenticity and integrity verification, the final result was an efficient watermarked imaged.
