New Delhi, Sept. 10 -- Tata Elxsi has opened a new global technology centre in Pune to develop medical devices in collaboration with Bayer. The facility, called the Bayer Development Centre in Radiology, will focus on creating advanced radiology equipment to support early diagnosis and treatment of illnesses.

The centre will initially work on molecular imaging technologies. It brings together design, development, and validation functions under one roof, which the companies say will shorten development timelines, reduce costs, and ensure compliance with international regulatory standards.

Through this partnership, Bayer aims to expand its pipeline of radiology solutions for global markets, including the United States and Europe. Tata Elxsi will contribute its expertise in healthcare engineering, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and regulatory processes. The collaboration will also make use of India's technology ecosystem, which provides access to laboratories, specialised talent, and regulatory networks.

Dr. Konstanze Diefenbach, Head of Research & Development, Radiology, Bayer, commented, "This new centre gives us direct access to specialised engineering capabilities through Tata Elxsi, enabling us to accelerate our pipeline of advanced radiology devices while maintaining the quality and reliability that healthcare providers expect from Bayer."

Sreevatsa Sahasranaman, Sr. Vice President & Head - Healthcare & Life Sciences, Tata Elxsi, said, "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. 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."
