Abstract
The metaverse has entered people's horizons through virtual reality, digital twinning, the Internet of Things, blockchain technology, etc. In the current healthcare system, the management of chronic diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), still faces challenges, such as uneven distribution of medical resources, and difficulty in follow-up, overburdening of specialists, and so on. However, metaverse medical platforms incorporating advanced AI technologies, such as industrial-scale digital twins, may address these issues. In this article, we discuss the application prospect of these technologies in digital medicine and the future of the medical metaverse.
