Abstract:
Moving away from traditional "one-size-fits-all" treatment to precision-based medicine has tremendously improved disease prognosis, accuracy of diagnosis, disease progression prediction, and targeted-treatment. The current cutting-edge of 5G network technology is enabling a growing trend in precision medicine to extend its utility and value to the smart healthcare system. The 5G network technology will bring together big data, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to provide essential levels of connectivity to enable a new health ecosystem toward precision medicine. In the 5G-enabled health ecosystem, its applications involve predictive and preventative measurements which enable advances in patient personalization. This review aims to discuss the opportunities, challenges, and prospects posed to 5G network technology in moving forward to deliver personalized treatments and patient-centric care via a precision medicine approach.
