Abstract
Techniques, described herein, enable enhanced de-identification solutions for digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) systems and records. DICOM header tags may be de-identified (e.g., anonymized) using one or more hashing algorithms and salt values. Solutions for evaluating and resolving collisions between de-identified. DICOM records may be de-identified in large batches or in smaller batches on a per-request basis. Additional features of the techniques are described herein.
