Current Research Interests

Dr Chung is interested in outcomes and epidemiology of renal cell carcinoma and carcinoma of the prostate. He is also developing new technologies in the treatment of both prostate and kidney cancer. He is studying the efficacy of minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques for kidney tumors, including cryotherapy, and in developing robotic and laparoscopic novel therapies in the treatment of prostate cancer.
