ABSTRACT
Block chain, as a decentralized, trustless database technology program with an intact information trans-parency and a privacy protection function, can be use to construct a highly effective and reliable transmission sys-tem and promote the Internet to become an infrastructure in building the society-trusted network. Block chain is of significant advantages in optimizing the business processes, reducing the operation cost and improving the synergis-tic efficiency in financial industry, and is thus rapidly applied in other industries. The construction of health and medical big data is faced with the challenge of both information security and privacy protection in health field. Block chain is characterized by high fault tolerance, unaltered infrastructure and privacy protection function, and has thus a large room for its application in medical treatment, pharmaceutical industry, medical insurance and ge-nomics.
ABSTRACT
Objective To provide the reference for researchers to understand the current situation in telemedicine by studying its hotspots with visual representation.Methods The cluster of Web of Science(WOS)-covered papers on telemedicine in the past 10 years was analyzed by bibliographic co-occurrence analysis combined with the dual cluster software gcluto.Results The hotspots in studies of telemedicine at present were centralized on system con-struction,evaluation analysis and data output.Conclusion Telemedicine,an important means for the rational allo-cation of medical resources,needs its researchers to integrate their study and new technologies,improve their medi-cal service level and promote the equality of medical service.
