our services
From the world’s most advanced 3T MRI scanners with in-bore ambient experience, to 128 slice CT scanners and superior Ultrasound machines, we cut no corners when it comes to imaging technology.
3T MRI
Ordinary MRI scanners are analogue systems. However, at Star Imaging, we use a Philips advanced 3.0T MRI scanner, with digital designed coils. This means our scanner captures MRI signals as close as possible to the body, resulting in faster scans, enhanced image quality and superior comfort for patients. In addition, we have the technological capability and know-how to safely scan people with knee, hip and other implants.
Star Imaging is the only centre in Pune to house 3T MRI machines offering enhanced in-bore ambient experience. These technologically advanced scanners allow patients to watch movies during their scan, and reduce claustrophobia by creating an impression of more space and light.
128 Slice CT
Star Imaging houses the most-advanced CT scanners available today, including a 128 slice CT machine. The 3D cone beam of the 128 slice scanner offers superior reconstruction and better accuracy in every examination possible. In addition, a 128 slice machine performs faster scans, thus reducing the waiting time in between scans to zero, while minimising radiation exposure. The DoseWise design further lowers radiation doses for both patients and staff alike.
digital mammography
Star Imaging’s SELENIA DIMENSIONS 3D Full-Field Digital Mammography machine with Tomosynthesis is a flexible digital breast imaging platform, with state-of-the-art image acquisition and display capabilities. Images can be acquired within seconds, translating into less discomfort for the patient. More importantly, this technology reduces radiation exposure by 30%-50%, while delivering superior image clarity and contrast. In addition, our Mammography system is equipped with Tomosynthesis – a revolutionary technology that allows for 3D reconstruction of images. 3D images highlight every minute detail, and offer extra clarity as compared to 2D scans, resulting in a more accurate diagnosis.
sonography and colour doppler
A Sonography or Ultrasound test comprises high-frequency sound-waves that capture live images from the inside of your body. Sonographies are safe, inexpensive and do not expose your body to radiation. At Star Imaging, we have the advanced iU22 xMATRIX Ultrasound system equipped with 2D and 3D capability, along with colour and duplex Doppler, to deliver crisp, hi-definition, real-time imaging even in the most technically challenging cases. The new PureWave xMatrix transducer delivers exceptional 2D images that get transformed into 3D images at the touch of a button. This helps provide a more complete picture, resulting in a more conclusive diagnosis.
Apart from hi-resolution Ultrasounds, we also offer Doppler scans during routine Ultrasound examinations, as well as peripheral arterial/venous Doppler studies, carotid artery Doppler and cardiac Doppler scans.
digital x-ray
An X-ray is a common imaging test that has been in practice since decades. X-rays provide doctors with an inside view of the body, without necessitating an incision. These images prove instrumental in diagnosing, monitoring and treating many medical conditions.
At Star Imaging, we have the latest Digital X-ray technology offering hi-definition imaging. Furthermore, our machines are handled by 12 highly skilled, organ-specific radiologists, who perform and interpret over 25,000 exams every year.
Bone Densitometry
Similar to an X-ray, a Bone Densitometry scan quickly and accurately measures the density of bone. This test is crucial in detecting osteopenia and osteoporosis, diseases where the bone’s mineral content and density reduce, increasing the risk of fractures. At Star Imaging, our DEXA Bone Densitometry scanner helps measure bone density in the most accurate, safe and non-invasive method possible.
BIOPSY PROCEDURES
In a biopsy procedure, a portion of tissue is removed from the body and examined in a lab for evidence of disease. A small tissue sample can be removed with a needle, while in certain cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove larger nodules. At Star Imaging, we specialise in Imaging-Guided Biopsy Procedures and Interventional Radiological Procedures. Our state-of-the-art CT and USG biopsy systems facilitate highly accurate, precise biopsies, leading to a more conclusive diagnosis.

I have no hesitation in stating that Star Imaging is a centre par excellence in the field of Imaging. According to me, the quality of imaging and reporting is far superior to any of its contemporaries in Pune. These qualities allow the clinician to further excel in their clinical assessment of the patient, helping them deliver desired results in clinical practice. I would strongly recommend this centre to all my colleagues to improve their understanding of the pathology which would allow them to do justice to their patients in clinical practice.

Even though I work and live in Mumbai, I visit Pune over the weekends. I found it far more convenient to get my shoulder MRI scan done at Star Imaging, Pune, than in Mumbai. The large bore of the MRI tunnel and the soothing ambience is something I have not experienced before. Got my report within two hours and was on my way back. Have advised all my friends to get scanned at Star Imaging in Pune, if they are anyways making a trip there.

Had MRI scans of both my knees at Star Imaging, Pune, during a business trip to the city. Amazing how they accommodated me at such a short notice. The images, my orthopaedic said, are truly world-class. He could make a precise decision about the surgery required based on the scan findings. Great service; and instant soft copy of report emailed to my doctor, as well as to me.

I sent my chief instructor from Nainital, Uttarakhand to Star Imaging, Pune, for his problem of double vision, as I had heard about this place from my relatives in Pune. They carried out a very detailed brain scan and found the cause; post which the doctors in Delhi could treat him. It was critical that he regain proper vision due to the nature of his work, i.e. high altitude mountaineering.

Star really cares about what they do and the results they provide. They asked me to come in to get an extra scan done for my aunt, because they felt it was required. They didn’t charge anything for it, they did it just so that we got the correct diagnosis. I came away feeling that they cared about my aunt’s health as much as I did.

The healthcare professionals at Star were very friendly and reassuring, which immediately put us at ease. Also, the MRI experience was very pleasant. I love the fact that you can watch a video while getting a scan done - small things like these make a big difference!

Star imaging has consistently provided seamless service in Medical Imaging, right from simple X-rays, to Ultrasound interventions and CT scans and MR imaging. Their quality and precision reporting is unmatched and very few centres can claim such high accuracy in reporting. Apart from imaging diagnostics - a feature that STAR imaging excels in - they also ensure a happy experience for the patient - be it the latest distraction technology within the MR gantry, or professionally dealing with appointments and providing soft copies of the images instantly.
