Authors' recommendations:
MSAC considered the strength of the available evidence in relation to the safety, clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of implantation of fiducial markers into the prostate gland or prostate surgical bed for external beam radiotherapy. Based on this consideration, MSAC supports continuation of the current interim public funding arrangements pending completion of its review of Radiation Oncology, including intensity-modulated and image-guided radiation therapy.
