Siemens Healthineers has signed an eight-year technology partnership with Klinikum Landkreis Erding to replace and standardize the hospital’s entire ultrasound fleet.

Under the agreement, Siemens Healthineers will supply, install, train staff on, and service 29 ultrasound systems across all departments of the German hospital. The contract includes an option for a two-year extension. Hospital officials said the move will unify the operating systems of the devices, aiming to streamline workflows and maintain consistent diagnostic quality.

“The technology partnership with Siemens Healthineers is a further investment in improving the quality and securing the future of the hospital,” said district administrator Martin Bayerstorfer. “This guarantees us consistent device quality and availability as well as uniform operation of the systems and thus higher diagnostic quality for the benefit of patients.”
Peter Eckert, head of ultrasound for the Central Western Europe region at Siemens Healthineers, said the agreement reflects the company’s commitment to expanding and refining its ultrasound portfolio to support accuracy and efficiency in clinical practice.

Klinikum Landkreis Erding is a municipal hospital with 330 inpatient beds and 12 outpatient places in a Pain Therapy Day Clinic. It operates at two sites in Erding and Dorfen and employs more than 1,100 people, making it the largest municipal employer in the Bavarian district of Erding. The facility is also an academic teaching hospital of the Technical University of Munich and hosts two vocational schools for nursing and nursing assistants.
