Summary

Bone marrow studies may be requested to evaluate for hematopoietic or solid neoplasms, or to help elucidate the etiology of abnormalities in the peripheral blood or lesions identified by imaging studies. These bone marrow specimens may include aspirate smears, clot sections, particle preparations, core touch preparations, and core biopsies. These specimens (preferably aspirates) can also be used for ancillary studies such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular analysis to supplement the morphologic picture.
