Bone marrow registry India: The city's first bone marrow registry, that was set up recently, is intended to serve as a bridge between patients fighting life-threatening blood disorders, and volunteers who are willing to donate their bone marrow. In India, bone marrow transplants are still a rarity, mainly because no registry exists. The marrow donor registry at Tata has an advisory board with experts and will have access to global databases as well. "It is connected to registries in Australia, Japan, France, Germany, Scandinavia, Italy, Denmark, the US and UK," , the NGO that worked closely with Tata Hospital to set up the registry. Officials from the registry will go to colleges and corporate houses seeking donors.
Thane region is taken care by bloodline charitable blood bank by acting as one of the active centre for marrow donor registration and the patients seeking marrow for hematological disorder treatment.
