MODEL RELEASED. Bone marrow transplant: scientist works in sterile,laminar flow cupboard to prepare white blood cells,filtered & centrifuged from donated bone marrow,ready for transplant. The technique attempts to treat blood disorders such as severe aplastic anaemia and some types of leukaemia. A high degree of tissue compatibility is necessary between donor & recipient,who will most often be related. Depending on the type of illness,some pretransplant conditioning - chemotherapy and/or whole body irradiation - is required,to irradicate any underlying illness and prevent rejection of the donor marrow.
