Medical image security is a critical concern in healthcare systems due to the sensitive nature of the data involved. This work presents a scheme that combines cryptographic techniques and other methods to prevent medical images from being compromised. The proposed scheme utilizes the inherent unpredictability of chaotic systems to randomly shuffle image pixels, which significantly improves the diffusion properties of the encryption process. This proposed algorithmic method protects against various types of intruders by saving the given image. Simulation output shows that existing work methods get greater levels of protection, efficiency, and robustness, making them suitable for practical applications in medical data protection. Comprehensive analysis validates the encryption scheme's effectiveness, including key sensitivity, statistical measures, and resistance to common cryptographic attacks, demonstrating its potential as a reliable solution for securing medical images.
