Tata Elxsi has opened the “Bayer Development Centre in Radiology” in Pune, India. The facility is designed to co-develop with Bayer advanced radiology devices and technology that enable early and accurate diagnosis and treatment of critical illnesses.

The centre will provide a range of engineering for complex radiology devices, with an initial focus on molecular imaging. The facility’s integrated approach—which combines design, development, and validation—will help accelerate time-to-market, enhance cost efficiency, and help deliver new technology to market fast, efficiently, and at an optimized cost while meeting highest regulatory compliance standards.

“This centre is more than an engineering hub—it is where Bayer’s radiology vision meets Tata Elxsi’s design, AI/ML, and regulatory expertise,” said Sreevatsa Sahasranaman, senior vice president and Head – Healthcare & Life Sciences at Tata Elxsi. “Our teams will work together to translate ideas into devices that address real-world diagnostic challenges, with the assurance of safety, compliance, and global scalability.”

This collaboration leverages Tata Elxsi’s healthcare engineering expertise and the strength of Tata’s and India’s ecosystems—enabling access to advanced labs, regulatory partnerships, and specialized technology talent. This creates a scalable foundation for innovation and strengthens Bayer’s ability to deliver radiology solutions across multiple geographies, including the United States and European Union.
