Challenges for Innovative Medical Solutions

Innovation is a part of our heritage - 125 years of medical engineering expertise combined with more than 30 years of healthcare information technology know-how. Every business day, we invest $3 million in Research & Development and average more than one invention. As a result, more than two-thirds of our products are less than three years old.

Siemens' innovative technologies help improve the quality of life for people around the world:

• Our radiation therapy systems treat 29,000 U.S. cancer patients daily.
• One-fourth of the hearing aids sold in the U.S. come from Siemens.
• The most widely used health information system in the world, a cornerstone of the electronic patient record (EPR), is a Siemens product.
• Nearly 25% of the U.S. population is registered in Siemens' common repository, so that healthcare providers can access critical patient information wherever care is needed.
• Our Global Health Information Network is the largest in the world, providing customers with unparalleled system availability, scalability, security, and performance.
