  Strong field gravitational lensing in the Brans-Dicke theory has been
studied. The deflection angle for photons passing very close to the photon
sphere is estimated for the static spherically symmetric space-time of the
theory and the position and magnification of the relativistic images are
obtained. Modeling the super massive central object of the galaxy by the
Brans-Dicke space-time, numerical values of different strong lensing observable
are estimated. It is found that against the expectation there is no significant
scalar field effect in the strong field observable lensing parameters. This
observation raises question on the potentiality of the strong field lensing to
discriminate different gravitational theories.
