Does " Olfactory Stem Cells As Therapy" mean " Olfactory Stem Cells can be used As a Therapy"?
And does "the ease in obtaining" mean "the convenience in obtaining"?
Context:
Olfactory Stem Cells As Therapy
A study characterizing the multipotency and transplantation value of olfactory stem cells, as well as the ease in obtaining them, has been published in a recent issue of Cell Transplantation (20:11/12), now freely available on-line.*
"There is worldwide enthusiasm for cell transplantation therapy to repair failing organs," said study lead author Dr. Andrew Wetzig of the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. "The olfactory mucosa of a patient's nose can provide cells that are potentially significant candidates for human tissue repair."

Sorry. The thrust of your question wasn't clear to me.
Yes, "therapy" and "treatment" are roughly synonymous in this context.
That is, "Olfactory Stem Cells As Therapy" = "Olfactory Stem Cells As Treatment."
The expression/collocation "stem cell therapy" is probably more common than the expression "stem cell treatment."
It implies that stem cells are the to
