Siemens Healthineers builds machines that let doctors look inside the body, such as MRI, CT and X-ray. It also makes lab tests for blood samples and, through its US subsidiary Varian, radiation therapy systems for cancer. Siemens owns the majority of the company but plans to hand 30 percent of the shares directly to its own shareholders in a spin-off. Siemens shareholders are due to vote on it in February 2027.
If you need an MRI or CT scan at a hospital or radiology practice, there is a good chance you are lying in a Siemens Healthineers machine.
