STEM CELL PRESERVATION
Stem cell preservation is a valuable opportunity to invest in your child’s future health. Stem cells, found in umbilical cord blood and tissue, have the remarkable ability to develop into different types of cells, offering potential treatment options for various diseases and conditions.
Benefits of Stem Cell Preservation:
- Potential for life-saving treatments: Stem cells can be used to treat a variety of diseases, including leukemia, lymphoma, blood disorders, and genetic conditions.
- Early intervention: Early access to stem cells can increase the chances of successful treatment.
- Personalized medicine: Stem cells offer the possibility of personalized medicine, where treatments are tailored to the individual's unique genetic makeup.
- Peace of mind: Preserving stem cells provides peace of mind knowing that potential treatment options are readily available if needed.
Types of Stem Cells Preserved:
- Umbilical cord blood: Collected after childbirth, rich in stem cells with high regenerative potential.
- Umbilical cord tissue: Contains a different type of stem cell with broader therapeutic potential.
Preservation Process:
