Does Orthodox Judaism allow organ donation?
Since autopsies are not permitted, I wondered if organ donation is acceptable, since its purpose is to save lives,

To save a life organ donation is allowed. So, in countries where you can make your organ donation to be conditional that it will only be for life saving treatments it is allowed. However, in countries where it cannot be made conditional and bodies end up being used by medical students, for research etc it is not allowed.
