“Prevention and active participation in our own better health are the first steps in improving health outcomes. Leveraging the power of gaming and social networks to encourage lifestyles that can help prevent cancer isn’t just a good idea – it’s part of our original healthymagination commitment to bring actionable health content to consumers and our employees.
 

At GE Healthcare, we also believe that our fight against cancer requires an ongoing investment in innovation. That is why we made a commitment of $1 billion in dedicated cancer-related research and development. With even faster and more effective technologies, we can enable clinicians with the powerful tools they need to accurately diagnose and treat million patients.”
