Parallel Digital Watermarking Process on Ultrasound Medical Images in Multicores Environment
With the advancement of technology in communication network, it facilitated digital medical images transmitted to healthcare professionals via internal network or public network (e.g., Internet), but it also exposes the transmitted digital medical images to the security threats, such as images tampe...
