The objective of this chapter is to explore the transformative impact of digitization on healthcare, aiming to improve patient outcomes and streamline medical processes. Healthcare, fundamentally focused on preserving and enhancing human health, has embraced digital technologies to revolutionize its landscape. The integration of binary language and information technology into healthcare practices has ushered in a new era of innovation. We delve into various facets of this digital revolution, highlighting its substantial contributions across diverse domains. Advanced imaging techniques, such as MRI and CAT scans, now leverage complex algorithms to process vast sensor-generated data. These algorithms yield actionable images, enhancing diagnostic precision while minimizing patient risks in robotic surgeries. Bioinformatics, with its capabilities in sequence analysis, genome annotation, and gene expression analysis, plays a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of human biology and disease. Meanwhile, health informatics has revolutionized how we acquire, store, retrieve, and utilize healthcare data, facilitating groundbreaking achievements such as rapid and cost-effective DNA sequencing. The benefits of DNA sequencing extend beyond imagination, including personalized medicine, targeted cancer therapy, and insights into previously enigmatic medical conditions. Moreover, the amalgamation of digital technologies has given rise to Public Health Informatics, a field dedicated to enhancing public health practice, research, and education. This chapter offers a comprehensive overview of the myriad information technology tools and their application in healthcare, shedding light on the transformative potential that digitization holds for the future of medical care.
