It is the renewing properties of the cells which allows them to be used as a treatment. The diseased cells must be completely removed by chemotherapy and in some cases radiotherapy. The umbilical cord stem cells can then be given intravenously to the patient and they will build a complete new blood system and maintain it for years to come.
