摘要
Recently, the use of blockchain technology in the field of healthcare has increased. Although blockchain technology brought several innovations to healthcare, still there are problems waiting to be resolved. In order to provide alternative solutions to these problems, the use of fog computing together with blockchain technology has been proposed. In this study, the applications of blockchain based fog computing technology in healthcare are investigated. The aim of this study is to provide the readers an idea about the interactive use of blockchain and fog computing in the field of healthcare. For this purpose, firstly, fog computing and blockchain technologies are introduced. Afterwards, the integration of these areas, the advantages and disadvantages of using these technologies in the field of healthcare is discussed and a new system architecture is proposed.
