Biography
Dr Peter Chiu is currently an Associate Professor of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He has primary interests in prostatic diseases including prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. For prostate cancer, he has conducted studies in novel diagnostic modalities including blood biomarker prostate health index (phi) and urine biomarker spermine. He is leading a study on the role of MRI imaging and biomarkers in optimizing prostate cancer screening in Chinese men.He is also involved in the initiation of focal therapy service (e.g. HIFU) for prostate cancer in Hong Kong, and is the principle investigator of a phase 2 clinical trial on microwave focal therapy for prostate cancer. For treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, he has conducted research in prostate artery embolization (PAE) and photoselective vaporization of prostate (PVP).

Peter has received numerous research funding and has published more than 50 articles in peer-reviewed journals including European Urology and BJU International. He has been a reviewer for multiple international journals. He is currently the associate editor of the online learning platform Grand Rounds in Urology, and he has been heavily involved in training of Urology trainees in Hong Kong since 2017 and was the chairman of Younger Urologists’. He is currently the honorary secretary of the Hong Kong Urological Association (HKUA).
