The History of Siemens Healthineers

In the mid-nineteenth century, when Germany was on the brink of
becoming a modern industrial society, the pioneering age of medical
technology dawned. Inventors started setting up their own companies
so that they could make their ideas a reality. The roots of Siemens
Healthineers reach back to this time - to a few small workshops
that would eventually grow into global businesses.
This book recounts the history of Siemens Healthineers in ten chapters
and through a rich collection of images. It primarily focuses on
the events that had the greatest impact on both the company and on
global progress in medical technology - from the early days of electromedicine
to the development of high-end systems, and from the
Great Depression of the 1920s to the entry of Siemens Healthineers
into the DAX, Germany's leading share index, in 2021.
