Abstract: There is an increasing interest in the role of digital health in the healthcare industry, focusing on enhancing patient care through technologies such as electronic health records (EHRs), mobile health applications, telemedicine, and other advancements. The purpose of this review is to highlight the enormous potential of digital transformation tools in managing and mitigating neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), which affect millions of people worldwide, particularly in the Global South. To meet this purpose, we conducted a scoping review of existing literature and investigated the specific application of these technologies to NTDs. Briefly, the review entailed three main components: a bibliometric analysis, a content analysis, and the design of an ontological model to illustrate the relationships between technologies and diseases.
