In addition to enhancing diagnostic accuracy, deep learning techniques offer the potential to streamline workflows, reduce interpretation time, and ultimately improve patient outcomes. The scalability and adaptability of deep learning algorithms enable their deployment across diverse clinical settings, ranging from radiology departments to point-of-care facilities. Furthermore, ongoing research efforts focus on addressing the challenges of data heterogeneity, model interpretability, and regulatory compliance, paving the way for seamless integration of deep learning solutions into routine clinical practice. As the field continues to evolve, collaborations between clinicians, data scientists, and industry stakeholders will be paramount in harnessing the full potential of deep learning for advancing medical image analysis and diagnosis. Furthermore, the integration of deep learning algorithms with other technologies, including natural language processing and computer vision, may foster multimodal medical data analysis and clinical decision support systems to improve patient care. The future of deep learning in medical image analysis and diagnosis is promising. With each success and advancement, this technology is getting closer to being leveraged for medical purposes. Beyond medical image analysis, patient care pathways like multimodal imaging, imaging genomics, and intelligent operating rooms or intensive care units can benefit from deep learning models.

Conventional treatment methods make even the most basic healthcare issues more complicated, which in turn increases the number of parties involved. Classical computing lacks the speed and accuracy needed for effective stakeholder collaboration in COVID-19 healthcare solutions, such as patients, insurance agents, healthcare practitioners, pharmaceutical suppliers, etc. The research uses organizational information processing theory (OIPT) to examine how quantum computing which is applications of artificial intelligence (AI) could transform the healthcare business, creating a more sustainable and less burdened system. The study of quantum computing (QC) has the potential to bring about “quantum leaps,” which might have unforeseen consequences for healthcare. The discovery of new medications, the personalization of medicinal treatments, and the acceleration of DNA sequencing are just a few of the many possible applications of this method. The potential of QC to transform compute-intensive healthcare tasks like drug-discovery, personalized-medicine, DNA-sequencing, medical-imaging, and operational-optimization is the primary focus of this survey paper, which offers the first comprehensive analysis of QCs diverse capabilities in improving healthcare systems. After a thorough literature study, we created taxonomies on the healthcare QC paradigm’s history and supporting technologies, applications, needs, architectures, security, outstanding questions, and future research prospects. We hope that by conducting this survey, researchers with varying levels of experience in quantum computing and healthcare will better understand the state of the art, assess opportunities and threats, and make informed decisions as they develop novel architectures and applications for this emerging field.
