Boris Bodelle

About

Boris Bodelle is a leading researcher in urological imaging and interventional radiology, with a focus on prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment outcomes. His pioneering work includes the development and clinical validation of an MR-compatible robotic assistance system for transgluteal prostate biopsy in high-field-strength 1.5-T systems. This landmark study, cited over 90 times, demonstrated the feasibility and safety of MR-guided biopsy using a robotic approach, significantly advancing precision in prostate cancer detection. More recently, Bodelle has contributed to improving postoperative quality of life by investigating how prostatic apex shape (Lee types) and urethral sphincter length on preoperative multiparametric MRI affect very early continence rates after radical prostatectomy. His 2021 study, with 25 citations, provides critical insights for surgical planning and patient counseling. Bodelle’s work bridges cutting-edge interventional technology and patient-centered outcomes, making him a key figure in the evolution of MRI-guided urological procedures and functional recovery after prostate surgery.
