Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Smart Healthcare—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are significantly transforming the healthcare sector, from improving diagnostic accuracy to facilitating personalized treatment and care. This Special Issue of Future Internet aims to explore how AI is shaping the future of healthcare, particularly through its integration into intelligent systems that improve patient outcomes, streamline healthcare processes, and enable effective remote monitoring and telemedicine.

We invite researchers, practitioners, and healthcare professionals to contribute original research papers, review articles, and case studies examining AI's development and application in healthcare. This Special Issue aims to address both the opportunities and challenges of implementing AI technologies, considering the technical, ethical, and regulatory dimensions. Ideally, submissions should focus on novel AI methodologies, real-world applications, or interdisciplinary approaches that highlight how AI can be effectively leveraged to build smarter health systems.

This Special Issue will serve as a platform for researchers, practitioners, and healthcare professionals to share their findings, discuss cutting-edge innovations, and propose solutions to real-world challenges in AI-enabled healthcare.

We warmly welcome innovative research and solutions that address the pressing challenges and cutting-edge advancements in AI for healthcare. Contributions should focus on how AI technologies are reshaping healthcare systems, enhancing patient care, and driving efficiency. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• AI-driven diagnostic tools and systems;
• Personalized and predictive healthcare;
• AI in remote monitoring and telehealth;
• Privacy and security in AI healthcare applications;
• AI for healthcare workflow optimization;
• Digital twins in healthcare;
• AI in mental health and wellbeing;
• AI for population health and public health.
