Foreword

Rapid developments in Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are causing a significant upheaval in the healthcare sector. The delivery, administration, and experiences of patients and providers in healthcare services are being completely transformed by these technologies. Healthcare workers may make better choices and enhance patient outcomes with the help of AI's potent tools for diagnostics, predictive analytics, customized medication, and automated processes. On the other hand, cloud computing offers scalable, adaptable, and reasonably priced options for processing, distributing, and storing enormous volumes of medical data. In addition to improving the efficacy and efficiency of medical procedures, the integration of AI and cloud computing in healthcare addresses important issues, including data security, interoperability, and real-time patient information access.

These technologies have the potential to drastically lower costs, enhance accessibility, and raise the standard of treatment as they develop further. In order to solve several problems, the editors have strived to highlight to accelerate the digital transformation of the healthcare sector and promote cooperation among industry players such as AI technological advancements for healthcare uses, AI-powered diagnostic tools and imaging technologies, predictive analytics in personalized medicine, and practical uses of AI in radiology analytics.
