摘要

Data-driven medical applications, powered by big data and artificial intelligence, generate scalable models from extensive datasets. This innovation attracts both academia and industry, significantly enhancing healthcare quality while posing integration challenges. Federated learning emerges as a transformative approach in healthcare, facilitating collaborative machine learning while preserving data privacy. This article reviews research on federated learning in healthcare, utilizing the "Web of Science" database to examine development trends and application progress. Initially, the federated learning system is dissected, and its application methods are analyzed, summarizing 18 federated learning frameworks and 9 privacy-preserving methods suitable for federated learning, and exploring its limitations in healthcare applications. Subsequently, recent literature on federated learning in four major areas—disease diagnosis and risk assessment, medical image analysis, drug discovery and development, and disease management—is reviewed, summarizing the general process of applying Federated Learning in healthcare. Finally, the challenges faced by federated learning in the medical field and the solutions currently being explored by scholars are summarized. This article aims to comprehensively summarize the research progress and application trends of federated learning technology in the medical field, analyze its limitations and challenges, and anticipate its future development to further promote sustainable advancement in the healthcare industry.
