These statements may be identified by words such as 'expect', 'look forward to', 'anticipate', 'intend', 'plan', 'believe', 'seek', 'estimate', 'will', 'project' or words of similar meaning. We may also make forward-looking statements in other reports, in presentations, in material delivered to shareholders and in press releases. In addition, our representatives may from time to time make oral forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the current expectations and certain assumptions of Siemens' management, of which many are beyond Siemens' control. These are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and factors, including, but not limited to those described in disclosures, in particular in the chapter Risks in the Annual Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying expectations not occur or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements of Siemens may (negatively or positively) vary materially from those described explicitly or implicitly in the relevant forward-looking statement. Siemens neither intends, nor assumes any obligation, to update or revise these forward-looking statements in light of developments which differ from those anticipated.

Two physicists independently discovered the principle of magnetic resonance:
Felix Bloch and Edward Mills Purcell - They laid the technical foundations for magnetic resonance imaging (Nobel Prize in Physics in1952)
Siemens used magnetic resonance imaging to study plastics in a special research lab
Modern MRI technology is considered to have been born: Chemist Paul C. Lauterbur and Physicist Sir Peter Mansfield were the first to make it possible to visualize
a fluid-filled object (Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2003)
Siemens was the first company in the world to install a commercial magnetic resonance imaging system for clinical applications, the Magnetom.
During whole-body scanning, it was able to visualize structures smaller than two millimeters in an image section with a diameter of 50 centimeters

Erlangen was the birthplace of magnetic resonance imaging at Siemens
Today it is home to the world's most advanced production site for MRI systems
The facility was built in 1999 and has been
expanded on a regular basis since then
It combines production, research, development, marketing, and logistics in a single campus
The Siemens research lab operates almost 30 fully functional MRI systems
Over 10,000 visitors and customers visit the site annually
