• Abstract summary: We propose a privacy-preserving deep learning (PPDL)-based approach to secure the classification of Chest X-ray images. The proposed approach is based on two steps: encrypting the dataset using partially homomorphic encryption and training/testing the DL algorithm over the encrypted images. Experimental results on the COVID-19 Radiography database show that the MobileNetV2 model achieves an accuracy of 94.2% over the plain data and 93.3% over the encrypted data.

• Abstract: Deep learning (DL) is being increasingly utilized in healthcare-related fields due to its outstanding efficiency. However, we have to keep the individual health data used by DL models private and secure. Protecting data and preserving the privacy of individuals has become an increasingly prevalent issue. The gap between the DL and privacy communities must be bridged. In this paper, we propose privacy-preserving deep learning (PPDL)-based approach to secure the classification of Chest X-ray images. This study aims to use Chest X-ray images to their fullest potential without compromising the privacy of the data that it contains. The proposed approach is based on two steps: encrypting the dataset using partially homomorphic encryption and training/testing the DL algorithm over the encrypted images. Experimental results on the COVID-19 Radiography database show that the MobileNetV2 model achieves an accuracy of 94.2% over the plain data and 93.3% over the encrypted data.

  Deep learning (DL) solutions have been extensively researched in the medical domain in recent years. The usage of health-related data is strictly regulated, processing medical records outside the hospital environment demands robust data protection measures. In this paper, we use singular value decomposition (SVD) and principal component analysis (PCA) to obfuscate the medical images before employing them in the DL analysis. The capability of DL algorithms to extract relevant information from secured data is assessed on a task of angiographic view classification based on obfuscated frames.

  The conventional anonymization process is carried out by obscuring personal information in the images with black boxes. Such simple measures retain biometric information in the chest radiographs, allowing patients to be re-identified by a linkage attack. We propose the first deep learning-based approach (PriCheXy-Net) to targetedly anonymize chest radiographs.
