Costs of transplantation by transplant type. Column height represents median costs per day survived. Categories of costs (as percent) for each transplant type are also shown. Costs of graft acquisition were not included in this figure. (MA MRD, myeloablative matched related donor; MA UCB, myeloablative umbilical cord blood; NMA MRD, nonmyeloablative matched related donor and NMA UCB, nonmyeloablative umbilical cord blood transplantation).
