Dr Anup Vinayan

I am a consultant oncologist who specialises in all non-surgical treatment of adult brain tumours (both primary and secondary), breast cancers and cancers with no known primary. My expertise includes treatment with chemotherapy, novel targeted therapy, immunotherapy and complex radiotherapy techniques. This includes Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Image-Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT) and Stereotactic radiotherapy techniques including Cyberknife and Gamma Knife. I completed my oncology training in London working in major cancer centres including Mount Vernon Cancer Centre, Imperial College NHS Trust and St. Bartholomew’s Hospital. My research doctorate investigated antiangiogenic therapy and therapeutic response assessment with DCE-MRI and novel response assessment imaging techniques. I have presented at multiple international conferences and have several peer-reviewed publications including research articles, review articles and book chapters. I am an investigator in multiple clinical trials and my current research interest includes new drug trials, improving therapeutic assessment and reducing normal tissue toxicity associated with radiation therapy.
