The moments that matter. In sports, even the tiniest milliseconds can make a difference. The same goes for #healthcare. As the world’s best athletes gather, dreaming of medals and victory, we’re thinking about how every day, clinicians are responding quickly to get competitors performing at their best. We’re helping with the innovations they need, from imaging equipment for a faster and more accurate diagnosis, to cardiac resuscitation tools for swift response after a collapse.
