About |
In the last few years, the rapid growth of the available digitised medical data has opened new challenges for the scientific research community in the healthcare informatic field. In this scenario, the constantly increasing volume of medical data, as well as the complexity and heterogeneity of this kind of data, requires innovative Big Data Analytics methods for extracting valuable insights from them and, at the same time, these new approaches must also guarantee the required levels of privacy and security. These solutions must provide effective and efficient tools to support the daily routine of physicians, medical professionals, and policy makers, improving the quality of the healthcare systems. The recent pandemic emergency has made the need for new Big Data approaches for the processing of such data more urgent. |
