Abstract
The concept of Metaverse has attracted a lot of attention in various fields
and one of its important applications is health and treatment. The Metaverse
has enormous potential to transform healthcare by changing patient care,
medical education, and the way teaching/learning and research are done. The
purpose of this research is to provide an introduction to the basic concepts
and fundamental technologies of the Metaverse. This paper examines the pros and
cons of the Metaverse in healthcare context and analyzes its potential from the
technology and AI perspective. In particular, the role of machine learning
methods is discussed; We will explain how machine learning algorithms can be
applied to the Metaverse generated data to gain better insights in healthcare
applications. Additionally, we examine the future visions of the Metaverse in
health delivery, by examining emerging technologies such as blockchain and also
addressing privacy concerns. The findings of this study contribute to a deeper
understanding of the applications of Metaverse in healthcare and its potential
to revolutionize the delivery of medical services.
