With creativity, courage, and the power to get things done, we are preparing to master tomorrow’s challenges with today’s innovations. Augmented Reality Artificial Intelligence COVID-19 Technology Re-Invented Digital Twin Robotics Medicine today primarily focuses on treating disease – but in the future, it will increasingly be able to prevent disease. We are forming a healthcare system that is becoming more personalized, more precise, more preventative, and more supportive. Right now, creative minds around the world are generating outstanding ideas for our future. And together with our partners, we are transforming those ideas into innovations that serve healthcare professionals and make optimal care accessible to everyone. Augmented reality has arrived in the operating room Augmented reality is a way to render data and tightly couple information from the real and the virtual world. Superimposing information onto the field of view has the potential to make medical training much more effective – and it has already arrived in operating rooms. A 3D representation of a patient’s anatomy is generated from CT images and directly projected onto the surgical field. These renderings improve the surgical team’s perception, while smart navigation software guides critical steps of the intervention. Prev Meet the team who brought Cinematic Rendering to the HoloLens. Therapy suite of the future: intelligent and digital Next I never imagined that the image of the object would be in such high resolution. I had seen the photorealistic image on the computer screen, but seeing a spatial representation of the heart in 3D in this quality is something else altogether. Muhannad Alkassar, MD, Pediatric Cardiologist, University Hospital Erlangen Digitalizing healthcare Shedding light on the unseen Surgery Planning an innovative hybrid operating room Artificial intelligence helps physicians make more informed decisions Whenever analyses are too difficult, time-consuming, or inefficient to perform alone, artificial intelligence (AI) provides valuable assistance to clinical professionals, allowing them to stay focused on their patients and better use their own expertise. AI-enabled tools identify meaningful relationships in raw data, extract relevant insights, and apply those lessons to new patient cases. By helping physicians make more informed clinical decisions, AI is an indispensable tool in all fields of healthcare, including drug development, patient care, and operational decisions. AI applications will allow us to diagnose patients faster, more consistently, and with fewer errors, so we stand to gain not only time but also confidence – confidence in the robustness of the diagnosis and time to talk to the patient.

Our imaging systems, applications, and services deliver high-value care to patients at each stage of COVID-19 disease management. With our digital health solutions and consulting, we help to protect hardworking healthcare professionals. And when it comes to giving others courage and strength, we’re especially generous – because we know that his act of sharing will help us all to accomplish the great mission we are facing. 66,000 Siemens Healthineers colleagues are sparing no effort and working wherever and however they can to provide clinical experts with the help and technical solutions they need in their fight against COVID-19. Bernd Montag, CEO Siemens Healthineers Antibody testing is critical in overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic Artificial Intelligence When COVID-19 strikes, we learn from the traces COVID-19 Diagnosing COVID-19: Testing is essential Imaging in a heartbeat It’s not just about reinventing technology – it’s also about making it accessible Improving the speed and reliability of in vitro diagnostics doesn’t just make labs more profitable – it also helps to save lives! What's more, making MRI systems less costly, more mobile, and easier to use will open the door to new clinical scenarios and improved imaging availability. These are just two of the many technologies that we continue to reinvent so that they can reach everyone - whenever and wherever they are needed. Speeding up by slowing down Modern labs receive patient samples from many different facilities. They rely on automation to mitigate the impact of this variation. With expertise in the field of machine vision, Benjamin Pollack and his team at Siemens Healthineers are improving automation. They deploy artificial intelligence and deep learning to greatly reduce the failure rate of automated in vitro diagnostics. We don’t have the luxury of just hitting refresh when we have an error. An error could mean redrawing a pediatric blood sample or delaying a critical medical decision in an emergency room. Everyone in the diagnostics business understands that improving the speed and reliability of in vitro diagnostics doesn’t just help improve the profits of labs; it helps save lives. Benjamin Pollack, Technology Leader for Machine Vision at Siemens Healthineers Imaging The MRI at 50 – what lies ahead? The liquid gold of MRI Digital Twin technology is playing a fundamental role in the transformation of healthcare Digital Twin technology allows us to create virtual representations of physical objects or structures. It helps to bring lifesaving innovations to market fast, at a lower cost, and with the highest level of patient safety. But can a Digital Twin be mapped so accurately to a person's physical self that it could be used to predict and even prevent disease? A GPS to synchronize the heart Tommaso Mansi and team are researching to help those with a sick heart get better. Using Digital Twin technology, they simulate the best possible way to treat heart failure patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy. Digital Twin How my digital self helped me survive cancer Solutions for individual patients Physicians are interacting more and more closely with robotic technology – and utilizing its strengths Robotics 7 Heralding a new era Robot-assisted procedures are already being carried out in a variety of medical fields. The precision provided by untiring robots is a useful support for physicians, helping them avoid complications in delicate or complex procedures. The technology also allows the best physicians to put their abilities to work for patients around the world at short notice. But where did it all begin, where do we stand today and what future trends can be identified?
