Mr Manit Arya

Mr Manit Arya is a consultant in Uro-Oncology at University College Hospital, London and the Nuada Medical Group. His work is focused on treating urological cancers. He works as part of a multidisciplinary team with Hashim Ahmed in the management of patients with urological cancer, particularly prostate cancer in men.

He has a particular interest in the treatment and management of patients with primary or radio-recurrent prostate cancer, using minimally invasive interventional techniques such as high intensity focused ultrasound as part of a focal therapy or whole gland treatment plan, thus avoiding the harm done by radical surgery and radiotherapy, which in primary prostate cancer can often affect quality of life and sexual function.

He is a national and international mentor for those surgeons interested in learning to use focal HIFU for the treatment of prostate cancer.

He has also had previous specialist experience in major oncological surgery at the Royal Free Hospital, London.

His research interests include investigating the metastatic process of prostate cancer at a molecular level and is also supported by the Orchid Charity for his research into penile cancer.

He has published extensively throughout the Urology literature particularly in the field of uro-oncology and has edited 10 textbooks, dedicated to improving the treatments options avaliable for patients.
