Postmortem Donation Rights is a legal construct defining the legally recognized authority of individuals to determine the use of their own body or organs for transplantation, research, or education after death, distinguishing it from other anatomical gift permissions by centering on autonomous decision-making prior to death within the framework of uniform anatomical gift legislation.
