Authors' recommendations: After considering the strength of the available evidence in relation to the safety, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of robotic image-guided stereotactic precise beam radiosurgery and radiotherapy via the CyberKnife® system for patients with prostate cancer and patients with primary non-small cell lung cancer and lung metastasis from other controlled primary sites, MSAC does not support a new, higher MBS fee for the procedure.
