Earlier this year, an MoU was signed between Siemens Healthineers and the Alameda Group at Siemens Healthineers’ manufacturing premises in Forchheim, Germany. With the ultimate goal of optimizing, expanding, and advancing patient-centric care, this collaboration continues to transform Egypt’s healthcare sector; within a year of the partnership, the Alameda Group successfully inaugurated a Cath lab at the As-Salam International Hospital in Maadi, Egypt.

This Cath lab has been equipped with the latest technology in angiography, the Siemens Healthineers ARTIS Q ceiling.

The ARTIS Q ceiling is meant to serve advanced interventional oncology and neurology procedures. The system runs advanced applications such as 3D Imaging, DynaCT, Embolization Guidance, Needle Guidance, and many other features that enable physicians to provide precision medicine at the lowest possible dose. In addition, the system can also serve advanced Interventional Cardiology procedures such as TAVI and PCI.

This project is the first of the three Cath labs to complete its upgradation by Alameda Group, utilizing Siemens Healthineers technology. The next two are slated to follow soon; one at Dar El Fouad Hospital and one to be donated to Kasr Al Aini Hospital, Cairo University, through the Khater Foundation.

Alameda Healthcare Group have previously partnered with Siemens Healthineers Egypt in several projects, most recently with the addition of the cutting-edge Biograph Horizon PET/CT scanner at As-Salam International Hospital in Maadi, Cairo. This MoU will enable both parties to further the strategic nature of their partnership and scale up their collaboration towards increasing and advancing access to quality care.

Alameda Healthcare Group is a leading healthcare provider in Egypt, dedicated to providing the community with healthcare services of the highest quality while leveraging global communications and leading technologies to deliver medical care to patients. Alameda has a bed capacity of 1,023 beds and 128 clinics through a strategically located network of four facilities across Greater Cairo.
