About
Matthieu Faessel is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of urology, medical imaging, and patient-centered care. His key research areas include 3D printing for surgical planning, patient education, and the optimization of caregiver-patient communication in oncology. Faessel’s major contribution is the development and clinical validation of personalized three-dimensional tumoral kidney models, demonstrating that these tangible replicas significantly enhance patients’ comprehension of their pathology and surgical procedures. His landmark randomized trial, "Rein 3D Print Personalize—UroCCR 114" (2025), with 3 citations, is a notable achievement as it provides the first robust evidence that personalized 3D models improve patient experience and foster more meaningful interactions between patients and caregivers before and after partial nephrectomy. This work addresses a critical gap in shared decision-making, moving beyond generic anatomical diagrams to offer a bespoke educational tool. By rigorously testing the impact of these models, Faessel is shaping a future where advanced manufacturing directly empowers patients, making complex surgical information accessible and reducing anxiety. His research stands as a model for integrating cutting-edge technology with humanistic care in modern medicine.
