| Reason for decision | Not eligible for Health Technology Evaluation guidance |
| Further information | The NICE Topic Selection Oversight Panel (TSOP), met in May 2023 to carefully consider the suitability of this topic for a Technology Appraisal (TA). The panel concluded it would not be an efficient use of NHS resources to conduct an evaluation. The topic will be formally removed from the NICE work programme. Due to the non-selection, NHS England may consider the technology for routine commissioning – please see section 3.1 of the NHS England Procedural note: non submission of data to NICE for further information. Any request for consideration for routine commissioning needs to be submitted via a clinician; the Service Development Policy outlines the process. |
