The Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based healthcare systems are comprised of a large number of networked medical devices, wearables, and sensors that collect and transmit data to improve patient care. However, the enormous number of networked devices renders these systems vulnerable to assaults. To address these challenges, researchers advocated reducing execution time, leveraging cryptographic protocols to improve security and avoid assaults, and utilizing energy-efficient algorithms to minimize energy consumption during computation.

Lung cancer is a high-risk disease that causes mortality worldwide; nevertheless, lung nodules are the main manifestation that can help to diagnose lung cancer at an early stage, lowering the workload of radiologists and boosting the rate of diagnosis. Artificial intelligence-based neural networks are promising technologies for automatically detecting lung nodules employing patient monitoring data acquired from sensor technology through an Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based patient monitoring system. However, the standard neural networks rely on manually acquired features, which reduces the effectiveness of detection.

IoT-enabled healthcare apps are providing significant value to society by offering cost-effective patient monitoring solutions in IoT-enabled buildings. However, with a large number of users and sensitive personal information readily available in today's fast-paced, internet, and cloud-based environment, the security of these healthcare systems must be a top priority. The idea of safely storing a patient's health data in an electronic format raises issues regarding patient data privacy and security.

Background: Left ventricle (LV) segmentation using a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dataset is critical for evaluating global and regional cardiac functions and diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. LV clinical metrics such as LV volume, LV mass and ejection fraction (EF) are frequently extracted based on the LV segmentation from short-axis MRI images. Manual segmentation to assess such functions is tedious and time-consuming for medical experts to diagnose cardiac pathologies.
