The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released new figures to show that the total number of organ donations is at an all-time high.

The number of organ donation cases doubled to 1.1 million from about one million in 2011, the CDC reports.

In total, 471,000 people donated their organs in 2011, the highest number in 17 years.
