Abstract

Healthcare is a significant domain for continuous inventions and sustainable developments over decades in majority of the countries. Due to rapid technological advancement in engineering now healthcare can’t be imagined without technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Computing, Data Analytics, Machine Learning, etc., for better prediction, analysis and to take precautions on early stages of any disease or health issues. The advent Internet of Things (IoT) spreading its feet from last one decade in healthcare industry which all together consumes the benefits of the above-mentioned technologies for the betterment of healthcare services to consumers. In this paper, the focus is especially on Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) its applications, services, and challenges in healthcare.
