The healthcare architect
Efficiency plays a major role both in my architectural planning and in my private life. As a single mother, I have to be very structured to make sure I can keep all the plates spinning.

The focus is on the screen with the CAD software on it, which shows an architectural floor plan.](https://corporate.webassets.siemens-healthineers.com/c3fdc30956429389/b7aadb9a8d8a/v/0c03382bd646/siemens-healthineers_futureshaper_stefanie-vonhoff_healthcare-facility-design_monitor.jpg)

On the table is a roll of paper with an architectural plan on which Stefanie is drawing something. Her colleagues are listening attentively. In the foreground you can see more large-format plans.](https://corporate.webassets.siemens-healthineers.com/91fabb76c95f2acc/41b58f1e7409/v/f892578665ae/siemens-healthineers_futureshaper_stefanie-vonhoff_healthcare-facility-design_colleagues.jpg)

Together with her multidisciplinary team, Vonhoff will continue working to ensure that hospitals around the world remain a healing place for patients and the people who work there. She’ll continue drawing on her years of experience, with support from intelligent technology. And she’ll remain straightforward and efficient in her work – using as little paper as possible.
Scenarios were evaluated based on the current systems scan times.
Stress test: Average times used, calculated as an average of all process step times and scan times from the different exam types.
Comparison of scenario 1/standard scan times and scenario 2/MAGNETOM Sola scan times.
The Magnetom Flow platform is still under development and not commercially available. Its future availability cannot be ensured. Magnetom Flow is equipped with Dry Cool technology, which requires only 0.7 liters of liquid helium for magnet cooling over the lifetime of the device.
