  • Infrastructure for Secure Medical Image Sharing Between Distributed
    Infrastructure for Secure Medical Image Sharing between Distributed PACS and DI-r systems Infrastructure for Secure Medical Image Sharing between Distributed PACS and DI-r systems By Krupa Anna Kuriakose, B.Tech. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Ontario Institute of Technology Copyright c by Krupa Anna Kuriakose, 2013 Master of Applied Science University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Oshawa, Ontario TITLE: Infrastructure for Secure Medical Image Sharing between Distributed PACS and DI-r systems AUTHOR: Krupa Anna Kuriakose, B.Tech. SUPERVISOR: Dr. Kamran Sartipi NUMBER OF PAGES: ix, 114 ii Abstract Recent developments in information and communication technologies and their incor- poration into the medical domain have opened doors for the enhancement of health care services and thereby increasing the work flow at a reasonable rate. However, to implement such services, current medical system needs to be flexible enough to support integration with other systems. This integration should be achieved in a secure manner and the resultant service should be made available to all health professionals and patients. This thesis proposes a new infrastructure for secure medical image sharing between legacy PACS and DI-r. The solution employs OpenID standard for user authentication, OAuth service to grant authorization and IHE XDS-I profiles to store and retrieve medical im- ages and associated meta data. In the proposed infrastructure cooperative agents are employed to provide a user action, patient consent and system policy based access con- trol mechanism to securely share medical images.
