For the last few decades, the developments in treatment methods and surgeries are increasing in healthcare, with the advancement of imaging systems, image processing, artificial intelligence techniques, robotics, high speed computing systems, large capacity storage devices, wide spread high speed internet and Wi-Fi facilities, lasers etc., Image processing has been playing a major role in easy diagnosis of diseases, non-invasive surgeries, remote surgeries, autonomous hospital facilities and many more activities for healthcare. Image processing and hyper-spectral or multi-spectral imaging techniques, greatly help diagnosing various eye diseases – like Glaucoma, Age related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Diabetic Retinopathy etc. Early stage detection of breast cancer is important to decrease the mortality rate. The Internet of medical things (IoMT) is another application for medical and health related areas, for creating a digitized healthcare systems, for treating patients from their homes and connecting available medical resources and healthcare services. To meet the worldwide demand for pathologists and for objective results, laboratories are incorporating digitization pathology with analytical software and artificial intelligence (AI). Pandemic has demanded Iot, collaborative research between various healthcare companies and hospitals etc., to get healthcare from homes, which was changing patient safety from hospital to home. Key hole surgery and robotic surgery are taking important role in healthcare, giving advantage to patients for faster recovery and early return to work.Robotic surgeries are used for treating patients from remote places. Controlling robos with brain signal is another on going research. Students would have lot of scope to carry out projects and designing sub-systems in these areas. During the past years, hospitals are witnessing a decline in inpatient volumes along with a corresponding rise at outpatient utilization. This ongoing shift to the outpatient setting has been driven largely by advances in minimally invasive surgical techniques and advanced anesthesia techniques that allow patients to recover more quickly. Hospital on wheels facilitate employs in corporate companies to visit doctors, avail dental care, eyecare and availing minor surgical procedures, etc., Most challenging task is providing minimum Healthcare facilities for Rural and semi urban areas.
