Blockchain dans la eSanté: perspectives et une application pour le traitement quotidien

Abstract

Electronic medical records (EMRs) are critical, highly sensitive private information in healthcare, and need to be frequently shared among peers. Blockchain provides a shared, immutable and transparent history of all the transactions to build applications with trustability, accountability and transparency. This provides a unique opportunity to develop a secure and trustable EMR data management and sharing system by using blockchain. We present our perspectives on blockchain-based healthcare data management. We implemented a framework for managing and sharing EMR data on cancer patient care that ensures privacy, security, availability, and fine-grained access control over EMR data.
