Sustainability in MRI:
The power of less is more
At Siemens Healthineers we want to work together with you to positively impact not only the well being of your patients but equally ensure that we use our planet's resources responsibly. By 2030 Siemens Healthineers will become carbon neutral and we are commited to helping you reduce your carbon footprint too.
MRI plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis of many diseases and supports clinicians across the world in caring for their patients every day. Yet, it is also a fact that MRI is among the most energy demanding equipment within radiology departments. As a consequence, it is our responsibility as Siemens Healthineers to provide technological solutions that reduce the ecological footprint of MRI and contribute to a more sustainable future in healthcare.
