Multisensory services and technologies play an important role in providing and managing health care services to anyone, anywhere and anytime, seamlessly aiming to build a smart city environment and to improve the quality of life for its citizens. These services and technologies facilitate physicians and other health care professionals to have immediate access to health information for efficient decision making as well as better treatment. Researchers are working to develop various multisensory tools, techniques and services to better support health initiatives to complement the classic scenario with smart cities. In particular, works in health record management, elderly health monitoring, real-time access of medical images and video are of great interest. This Special Section in IEEE A CCESS aims to explore innovative research achievements in the field of related techniques, applications, services and systems for Healthcare in Smart Cities.
