Reversible data hiding plays an important role in medical image systems. Many hospitals have already applied the electronic medical information in healthcare systems. Reversible data hiding is one of the feasible methodologies to protect the individual privacy and confidential information. With application in several high quality medical devices, the detection rate of diseases and treating are improved at the early stage. Its demands have been rising for recognizing complicated anatomical structures in high quality images. However, most data hiding methods are still applied in 8-bit depth medical images with 255 intensity levels. This paper summarizes the existing reversible data hiding algorithms and introduces basic knowledge in medical image.
