Convergence of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and Generative AI

In recent years, the convergence of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized healthcare delivery, offering unprecedented opportunities to enhance patient care, improve clinical outcomes, and optimize healthcare systems globally. IoMT based smart healthcare system is a collection of several smart medical equipment including wearable devices and apps connected within the network to provide health information. Generative AI revolutionizes global health in areas like medical data synthesis, image enhancement, disease prediction and diagnosis, drug discovery, medical documentation, and personalized healthcare. It offers opportunities to overcome data scarcity and privacy concerns through synthetic data generation and supports accurate disease interpretation and diagnosis through image quality enhancement. However, as IoMT and Generative AI continue to be used across healthcare systems, it is critical to examine their impact on global health, considering diverse socio-economic contexts, cultural sensitivities, and ethical implications. Convergence of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and Generative AI explores recent advancements in IoMT and generative AI, with a focus on state-of-the-art approaches, methodologies, and systems for the design, development, deployment, and innovative use of those technologies. It provides insights on how to develop IoMT and generative AI technologies to meet smart business and society development demands, especially in the healthcare field. This book covers topics such as medical technology, wearable technology, and data science, and is a useful resource for medical and healthcare professionals, scientists, engineers, academicians, and researchers.
