SBTD: Secured Brain Tumor Detection in IoMT Enabled Smart Healthcare

Brain tumors are fatal and severely disrupt brain function as they advance. Timely detection and precise monitoring are crucial for improving patient outcomes and survival. A smart healthcare system leveraging the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) revolutionizes patient care by offering streamlined remote healthcare, especially for individuals with acute medical conditions like brain tumors. However, such systems face significant challenges, such as 1) the increasing prevalence of cyber attacks in the expanding digital healthcare landscape, and 2) the lack of reliability and accuracy in existing tumor detection methods. To address these issues, we propose Secured Brain Tumor Detection (SBTD), the first unified system integrating IoMT with secure tumor detection. SBTD features: 1) a robust security framework grounded in chaos theory, to safeguard medical data; and 2) a reliable machine learning-based tumor detection framework that accurately localizes tumors using their anatomy. Comprehensive experimental evaluations on different multimodal MRI datasets demonstrate the system's suitability, clinical applicability and superior performance over state-of-the-art algorithms.
