Siemens Medical Solutions of Erlangen, Germany, has received antitrust approval and completed its acquisition of health information software developer Gesellschaft für Systemforschung und Dienstleistungen im Gesundheitswesen (GSD) of Berlin.

The new Siemens Medical Solutions GSD division will remain a separate entity, operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of Siemens Medical Solutions and as part of the Health Services division.
