About

Roshnee Patel is a leading researcher in urological oncology, with a primary focus on advancing prostate cancer diagnostics and surgical outcomes. Her work centers on the integration of high-field 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) into pre-biopsy protocols, aiming to refine tumor characterization and guide targeted biopsy strategies. In her highly cited 2016 study, Patel demonstrated that pre-biopsy 3-Tesla MRI with targeted biopsy enables precise anatomical and oncological mapping of the index prostate tumor, correlating these findings with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy outcomes. This research directly addresses the challenge of positive surgical margins (PSMs), showing that improved preoperative imaging can translate into more accurate surgical planning and potentially lower PSM rates. With 17 citations, this work has influenced clinical pathways by promoting MRI-guided approaches that enhance risk stratification and reduce unnecessary biopsies. Patel’s contributions underscore her commitment to translating imaging innovations into tangible improvements in surgical precision and patient prognosis, marking her as a key voice in the evolution of personalized prostate cancer care.
