Health informatics is the intersection of computer science, information science and health care. Its aim is to develop technologies and methods for processing, acquisition and study of patient data. This data is derived from various sources and modalities including medical scans, electronic health records and diagnostic test results. The healthcare sector faces multiple difficulties, which can be resolved or managed using computational techniques. Health informatics is a multidisciplinary field that involves the design and development of computational innovations for improving health care. It uses data, knowledge, and information for delivery and improvement of healthcare services, while enhancing the patient outcomes. Data analysis involves collecting, processing, and interpreting data, while informatics involves applying the information derived from analysis. The purpose of health informatics is to derive conclusions from healthcare information and support in decision-making. This book provides significant information to help develop a good understanding of health informatics. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a systems perspective on the subject.
