Posttransplant ABM distribution and hematopoietic recovery. The trend of platelet (A) and neutrophils (B) recovery at days 30, 60, and 100 in the ACT and CBT groups shows a better outcome in patients treated with adult HSCs. Normalized ABM volumes (C) show a significant expansion of hematopoietic tissue within the appendicular skeleton (E), whereas the axial compartment was unchanged (D). Glucose metabolism was increased in both ACT and CBT (F) with a relative increase in the axial skeleton of patients treated with CBT (G) and a marked increase in the appendicular skeleton of both groups (H). Statistical significance is represented as follows: *P < .05; **P < .01.
