AB  - The selection of a related or an unrelated hematopoietic stem cell donor for a 
      patient requires accurate matching of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes in 
      order to maximize the beneficial effects of the transplant. There are various 
      different factors a laboratory must consider in order to achieve an HLA type 
      including the number of samples being processed, level of resolution to be 
      achieved, cost of providing the various tests, and turnaround time required. Each 
      method has its advantages and disadvantages, and in most laboratories, a 
      combination of methods may be used.
