Abstract. Recent years have seen a new amalgamation between Remote virtual doctor systems and healthcare IoT applications which plays a crucial role in enhancing patient’s healthcare life. The Remote VDS connected with smart Healthcare devices through the wireless network to be accessible anytime and anywhere is anticipated to treat rapidly valuable and confidential data such as personal medical images. Therefore, quick medical image encryption is an essential task in healthcare topic. Some medical image encryption research like the Scan methodology proposed for Remote VDS suffers from a long computational time. Then, the patient will confront difficulty on treatment availability in real-time and especially for critical situations. To overcome this problem, in this work, three medical image encryption methods are compared, (1) A Lightweight Encryption Technique to Enhance Medical Image Security on Internet of Medical Things Applications, (2) A new chaotic map with dynamic analysis and encryption application on the Internet of Health Things, and (3) Robust medical image encryption based on DNA chaos method. The comparison results have proven that the new chaotic map with a dynamic analysis scheme has high-security analysis and performances with low computational time compared to other methods. That makes it a good candidate for the H-IOT-RVDS environment connecting over 5G technology like a cellular network to enable connectivity between nodes.
