Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) supports interactive 3D medical visualization but introduces challenges in data security, privacy, and collaborative access. This paper presents a decentralized AR framework that integrates a multimodal biometric cryptosystem, a redactable blockchain, and IPFS-based storage for secure visualization of patient-specific 3D anatomical models. User authentication combines facial and fingerprint biometrics protected by a fuzzy vault scheme with Reed-Solomon (RS) encoding and asymmetric encryption. Smart contracts on a private redactable blockchain provide secure, auditable access control for authorized users. MRI scans are converted into lightweight 3D meshes and visualized through a mobile AR application for collaborative surgical planning. Experimental results show low authentication latency and resilience against common security threats. A user study with 60 medical professionals confirms the framework’s security, privacy, usability, and clinical value, demonstrating its effectiveness for secure collaborative 3D medical visualization.
