This interdisciplinary guide explores the applications of High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Supercomputing in healthcare, bridging the gap between computational science and clinical practice. Through practical case studies, it examines HPC-enabled genomic sequencing, medical image reconstruction, AI-driven diagnostics, predictive modelling, and large-scale epidemiological research. The book also addresses the deployment of scalable computing infrastructures across GPU clusters, hybrid cloud-HPC systems, and exascale environments, while considering the ethical, regulatory, and environmental challenges associated with advanced healthcare computing.
