The concept of Metaverse has attracted a lot of attention in various fields and one of its important applications is health and treatment. The Metaverse has enormous potential to transform healthcare by changing patient care, medical education, and the way teaching/learning and research are done. The purpose of this research is to provide an introduction to the basic concepts and fundamental technologies of the Metaverse. This paper examines the pros and cons of the Metaverse in healthcare context and analyzes its potential from the technology and AI perspective. In particular, the role of machine learning methods is discussed; We will explain how machine learning algorithms can be applied to the Metaverse generated data to gain better insights in healthcare applications. Additionally, we examine the future visions of the Metaverse in health delivery, by examining emerging technologies such as blockchain and also addressing privacy concerns. The findings of this study contribute to a deeper understanding of the applications of Metaverse in healthcare and its potential to revolutionize the delivery of medical services.
