Organ Transplant is a major medical procedure where an organ, usually a lung or a kidney, is taken out of one human body and put into the body of another human, to replace a missing or damaged organ. The donor and recipient can usually be in the same room, or organs can be transported between donor sites to another site. The lungs, stomach, liver, heart, intestines, and kidneys are the common transplant areas. The Spicer score is one of the most commonly used metrics in assessing whether a patient is a suitable candidate for an organ transplant.
