Kidney disease refers to any disease, disorder, or condition that affects the kidneys. While requirements and guidelines vary, imaging, laboratory diagnostics, and point‐of‐care testing are integral in screening, diagnosing, and/or monitoring most kidney conditions.
Siemens Healthineers offers solutions for healthcare providers, from primary‐care physicians and internists to nephrologists, oncologists, and radiologists, to improve the patient experience over a lifetime of the kidney healthcare continuum.
