Blood and Marrow Stem Cell Transplantation

Blood and Marrow Stem Cell Transplantation

Stem cell transplantation (SCT) is a treatment in which a patient receives healthy stem cells to replace stem cells that have been destroyed by disease or by high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. This booklet provides information about SCT for the treatment of blood cancers, brief descriptions of normal blood and bone marrow, and a glossary of medical terms to help you better understand this process.
