I am not sure about this but I think you can contact the Vitus Klinik yourself on international@vitusprostate.com

When I first did research I did and got a general e-mail back telling us what details they needed.

Good luck

Nanoknife is available at UCLH on the NHS for suitable candidates.

I wouldn't be surprised if Imperial did it too.

I have heard some district general hospitals are looking at offering it, but the advantage of the above is they do HIFU and Cryotherapy too, so if one focal treatment isn't suitable or not the best choice in your case, they'll know if another one would be better.

Another Focal Therapy is Tulsa Pro but I don't think this is available in the UK yet. It is really a variation of HIFU but where the probe is fed through the Ureter rather than through the Rectum so focuses on the tumour from within the Prostate rather than through it. Theoretically, it has several advantages over what is standard HIFU of the Prostate. However, like Nanoknife, log term results will need to be assessed.
