About
Maxence Borot de Battisti is a leading researcher in the field of MR-guided high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy for prostate cancer, with a focused expertise in automated treatment optimization and robotic needle insertion. His work addresses the critical challenge of delivering precise, focal radiation therapy to prostate tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Borot de Battisti’s major contributions include the development of an automated optimization tool for HDR prostate brachytherapy with a divergent needle pattern (2015, 10 citations), which enables more accurate dose delivery for focal treatments under MR guidance. He also pioneered a novel adaptive needle insertion sequencing for robotic, single-needle MR-guided procedures (2017, 7 citations), allowing for safe and effective needle placement within the confined workspace of a closed-bore MRI. Additionally, his simulation study on adaptive planning strategies to mitigate needle positioning errors (2016, 7 citations) has enhanced the robustness of single-fraction treatments. With a cumulative citation count reflecting his impact, Borot de Battisti’s work is instrumental in advancing the precision and safety of prostate cancer brachytherapy, offering a promising path toward reduced treatment-related toxicity and improved patient outcomes.
