Can bone marrow puncture detect anaemia

There are many causes of anemia, but the most common is iron deficiency. After diagnosis, iron supplements are usually used to treat the disease. If there is no improvement, there may be other causes of anemia, such as megaloblastic anemia, thalassemia, aplastic anemia and many others. It could also be that the body has problems absorbing iron. It's all possible. A bone piercing is necessary to rule out the possibility. The morphologic and compositional changes of various components and cells in bone marrow can be seen through bone penetration. To diagnose the specific cause. Bone piercings are not meant to prove leukemia. Bone piercing is the most basic diagnostic technique in hematology department. It's also necessary. "Bone piercing" is used for diagnostic purposes. A needle is inserted into the bone marrow cavity and a small amount of bone marrow is extracted for testing. Some patients mistakenly believe that the marrow fluid extracted by bone marrow aspiration will damage the essence and vitality of the human body, so they are not willing to carry out the examination. In fact, the marrow fluid required by bone marrow aspiration is very small, generally about 0.1ml, while the total amount of normal bone marrow fluid in the human body is about 2600ml. It can be seen that the marrow fluid extracted during bone marrow aspiration examination is insignificant compared with the total amount of human body. In addition, the body is constantly regenerating a large number of cells every day. In addition, patients often think that bone marrow aspiration is painful and scary, which is unnecessary. "Bone piercing" is not dangerous and does not leave any after-effects. Some diseases, especially blood diseases, are difficult to diagnose without this test. If the condition requires it, it should be done without hesitation. Even if there is no disease in the bone marrow, it is a great gain because the elimination of blood disease can not only relieve the mental burden, but also avoid the pain and possible side effects of unnecessary treatment for the patient and his family.
