i have been learning the Sicilian Dragon and i was reading about the importance of the Dragon Bishop, i have been following the usual lines, but i was informed of a new line where i dont think i can keep the bishop.

the question i have is: is there a way to avoid losing the bishop?

In this position u could try Ng4 instead of catling, because white didnt play f3

 

Edit I see sb was faster:)

To me, 7. Qd2 looks like an inaccuracy, and 7. ... Ng4, as suggested, preserves your bishop with an edge.
