Show Notes
Top-class, professional soccer demands the highest performance from athletes’ bodies—both in training and in competition. As the years have progressed and skill and competition have augmented, physical demand from athletes has increased exponentially. In addition to an elite running game, professional footballers are also trained to achieve cannon-like kicks of up to 120 kilometers per hour and withstand headers stronger than the punch of a professional boxer.
In this episode, Dr. Yvonne Braun, Director of Global Clinical Marketing Surgery at Siemens Healthineers, is joined by Dr. Jochen Hahne, an orthopedic specialist and team physician, Prof. Dr. Martin Mack, a specialist in diagnostic and interventional radiology and Prof. Dr. Peter Ueblacker, a team physician and specialist in orthopedics and chirotherapy, all of whom work with FC Bayern, the most successful soccer club in German history.
You’ll hear from the doctors who work with FC Bayern about how advances in orthopedics and medical imaging technology allow them to keep players in the game given all of the continuous stresses they’re under.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode: •How team doctors with FC Bayern manage injured players •The way the club’s medical team and its team doctors collaborate to keep players healthy •Why prevention is the most powerful key to a healthy team •The importance of time and patience in healing sports-related injuries •How radiology plays such a major role in FC Bayern’s medical protocol •The problems that can arise when under-trained, under-experienced radiologists are at the helm

In this episode of Healthcare Perspectives, host Isabel Nieto Alvarez, PhD, an expert for patient experience at Siemens Healthineers, is joined by Maria Bernathova, MD, breast radiologist and generative AI specialist, and Caroline Justich, breast cancer patient advocate and founder of the patient support initiative Be Accepted. Together, they discuss how better communication — and the responsible use of AI — could help patients feel more informed, involved, and supported throughout their care.
Across the globe, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and obesity continue to place a growing burden on healthcare systems. Many of these conditions develop silently, often remaining undetected until significant damage has already occurred.
Healthcare systems around the world are under increasing pressure to reduce their environmental footprint without compromising access to care, quality, or patient safety. One often overlooked opportunity is the refurbishment of imaging systems. By giving imaging systems a second life, healthcare providers can help preserve resources while continuing to deliver clinical performance.
Across the globe, radiology departments are grappling with a paradox: imaging volumes are climbing while the trained workforce needed to operate scanners is shrinking. Using AI-driven tools, a drive towards fully-automated radiology promises faster diagnoses, greater diagnostic accuracy, and more efficient workflows, improving both the patient and clinician experience. It is rapidly transforming the way medical imaging is performed, analyzed, and integrated into imaging workflows.
Medical imaging is already an integral part of modern healthcare, but as hospitals face growing imaging demand and staffing challenges, new solutions using artificial intelligence have become an effective way to help ease the load.
