An umbrella review on the effectiveness and safety of the CyberKnife© system was performed by comprehensively searching for all related publications. The CyberKnife system had excellent effect on treatment of cancer and some noncancer diseases, with limited toxicity. Additionally, it was a cost-effective treatment compared with other types of radiotherapy. Despite the relatively low quality of the included evidence, our findings can still provide a comprehensive decision reference for policymakers of patients, government and hospitals.
