Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide—and India carries one of the heaviest burdens. In 2022 alone, over 1 million deaths in India were linked to COPD. Shockingly, many of these were undiagnosed until it was too late.
Air pollution, smoking, and even indoor cooking smoke are silent culprits. But the symptoms—chronic cough, breathlessness, chest tightness—often get dismissed as “just a cold” or “age catching up.” That delay can cost lives.
This World COPD Day, STAR CT & MRI Scan Centre urges you to listen to your lungs. If you or a loved one has persistent respiratory symptoms, don’t wait. Our advanced chest scans help detect early signs of COPD and other lung conditions—so you can breathe easier, sooner.
Early detection saves lungs. Early action saves lives.At STAR, we listen. We scan. We care.
