Abstract

Blockchain and deepfake mark a new step in integrating technology into therapeutic treatment, revolutionizing medical data management and patient care. Blockchain, especially through NFTs, secures healthcare data, ensuring transparency, access, confidentiality, and traceability. Deepfake enhances treatments by creating realistic simulations for rehabilitation and immersion therapies. However, these technologies raise ethical concerns about data security, informed consent, and potential misuse. This comparative study examines their applications, benefits, challenges, and ethical issues in healthcare, analyzing their impact on treatment quality and patient well-being. Based on an extensive literature review, findings show blockchain improves data security and traceability, while NFTs enable personalized treatments. Deepfakes, despite potential in therapy, pose risks of image manipulation and consent violations. The study provides recommendations for a regulated and secure integration of these technologies in therapy.
