Abstract

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is today the foundation of healthcare systems with various applications and wireless communication technologies for information transmission. But to take advantage of this potential, secure and reliable communication with a good health bandwidth is indispensable. In addition to all these aspects, energy consumption and a good quality of service is required. The Internet of Things (IoT) in healthcare systems can be the future of intelligent, more flexible, and interoperable healthcare. This chapter discusses and presents different concepts of the Internet of Things technology, emerging communication technologies suitable for healthcare applications for monitoring, treatment, and diagnosis. But also, it highlights some challenges related to the security and privacy of patient data.
