Metaverse Empowered Healthcare 5.0 in B5G: Use Cases, Opportunities and Challenges

Patient tracking on the go, emotional telemedicine, telesurgery, wellness tracking, virtual clinics, and customized treatment are all made possible by Healthcare 5.0. Healthcare services offered by metaverse have the potential to transform the sector entirely, and the development of Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) networks offers the infrastructure required to make these services a reality. We demonstrate a range of use cases, including emotional telemedicine, telesurgery, virtual physical therapy sessions, remote patient monitoring, and well-being monitoring, as we examine the possibilities of Metaverse-enabled Healthcare 5.0 in B5G networks. It is stated how these services can lead to better patient outcomes, more individualized treatment, and lower costs. In addition, we address the difficulties that these services present, including issues with data interoperability, privacy and security, and regulatory compliance, and we offer answers. Finally, we highlight future direction insights for metaverse-empowered healthcare5.0 in B5G networks.

Abstract

Patient tracking on the go, emotional telemedicine, telesurgery, wellness tracking, virtual clinics, and customized treatment are all made possible by Healthcare 5.0. Healthcare services offered by metaverse have the potential to transform the sector entirely, and the development of Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) networks offers the infrastructure required to make these services a reality. We demonstrate a range of use cases, including emotional telemedicine, telesurgery, virtual physical therapy sessions, remote patient monitoring, and well-being monitoring, as we examine the possibilities of Metaverse-enabled Healthcare 5.0 in B5G networks. It is stated how these services can lead to better patient outcomes, more individualized treatment, and lower costs. In addition, we address the difficulties that these services present, including issues with data interoperability, privacy and security, and regulatory compliance, and we offer answers. Finally, we highlight future direction insights for metaverse-empowered healthcare5.0 in B5G networks.
