Smart System using Blockchain for Medical Diagnosis

Abstract

Blockchain is a technology that is currently widespread in many fields, it is used to transmit information between two or more parties in a secure way, without the possibility of data loss or interception by an unwanted third party. A blockchain network represents the creation of innovative solutions for the healthcare system, as patient data can be exchanged across hospitals, diagnostic labs, pharmacy firms and doctors. In this paper the topic of blockchain technology and its significant benefits in the field of medical diagnostics is addressed. With the proposed solution a misdiagnosis can be avoided, as there is the possibility to ask for other opinions from other health professionals. The highest level of security information storage allows authorised doctors to access your data from any geographical location, with no territorial limitations. Provides fast, versatile interconnection and enhanced security of patient information. In conclusion, this technology can be incorporated into the current medical system.
