Preface
This Handbook is carefully edited book—contributors are worldwide experts in
the field of medical and healthcare technologies. The scope of the book includes
leading edge technologies including breakthroughs in tissue engineering, nano-
technologyinmedicine, innovative medicalimage techniques, knowledgemining
techniques in medicine, cloud computing applications in medicine, personalized
medicine, mobile medical and healthcare applications, health informatics, and
other innovative technologies.
Medical and Healthcare Technology refers to a wide range of healthcare
products that are used to diagnose, monitor, and threat diseases or medical con-
ditions affecting humans. Recent advances in mobile and wireless technologies,
medical imaging, nano- and telemedicine, knowledge and data mining, informa-
tion technology, and other interdisciplinary areas, provided a framework for a
significantgrowthofthefieldandintroductionofinnovativeproductsandsystems.
The Handbook will present the current state-of-the-art in this explosive field, and
introduceinnovativesystems,applications,andtechniquesdevelopedbyexpertsin
the field worldwide.
The Handbook comprises of two parts, which consist of 22 chapters. The first
parton Medical Technologiesincludeschaptersdealing with medicalinformation
retrieval, tissue engineering techniques, 3D medical imaging, nanotechnology
innovationsinmedicine,medicalwirelesssensornetworks,andknowledgemining
techniquesinmedicine.ThesecondpartonHealthcareTechnologiescoverstopics
such as prediction hospital readmission risk, modeling e-health framework, per-
sonal Web in healthcare, security issues for medical records, and personalized
services in healthcare.
With the dramatic growth of data intensive computing and systems and their
applications, this Handbook can be the definitive resource for persons working in
thisfieldasresearchers,scientists,medicalandhealthcare,andusers.Thisbookis
intended for a wide variety of people including academicians, designers, devel-
opers, educators, engineers, practitioners, and researchers and graduate students.
This book can also be beneficial for business managers, entrepreneurs, and
investors. The book can have a great potential to be adopted as a textbook in
current and new courses on Medical and Healthcare Technologies.
