摘要：The stacks of global healthcare data are increasing exponentially. To supply high value healthcare atlower cost there is a need felt in the direction of implementing successful big data analytics practice to find insight fromvery large data sets and improving coordination, care quality and outcomes through improved analytics of healthcarebig data. The medical records such as nursing observation, reading of patient tests, Doctor’s prescription and imagesare very functional in discovering important patterns relating to diagnoses and disease treatments. Big data inhealthcare has big potential; however there remain some challenges to overcome. Healthcare data analytics iscontinuously improving but there is a need of more efforts because advanced data integration and data analyticstechniques are only theoretically exist. This paper defines big data characteristics, advantages of big data, tools andtechnologies, life cycle phases to big data, challenges of big data in healthcare. The paper also provides a briefdescription on non-invasive and minimal- invasive medical imaging modalities such as MRI, CT scan, X ray imaging,ultrasonography and PET scan.
