    Siemens
    Representatives: Dr. A. Hans Vija
    Siemens Medical Solutions brings together innovative imaging equipment, information technology, management consulting and services to help customers achieve tangible, sustainable clinical and financial outcomes. From imaging systems for diagnosis, to therapy equipment for treatment, to patient monitors to hearing instruments and beyond, Siemens innovations contribute to the health and well being of people across the globe, while improving operational efficiencies and optimizing workflow in hospitals, clinics, home health agencies, and doctors' offices. Molecular imaging is a non-invasive method for visualizing and examining normal as well as abnormal biological processes at a cellular or molecular level. In contrast to conventional diagnostic imaging, it delivers information about the specific underlying abnormalities that are causing the disease, rather than visible pathology. The in vivo detection of pathology clearly constitutes a new level of diagnostic possibilities. Molecular imaging has its origins in molecular biology and biochemistry. Over the past decade, the tools of these two fields were combined with modern imaging technologies, resulting in a new highly effective scanning method.
