Bone marrow aspiration is an important examination for the diagnosis of blood diseases. Through the cytological examination of bone marrow smear, we can understand the generation of various cells in the bone marrow, the changes in the morphology and composition of various cells, and find abnormal cells, so as to make a clear diagnosis. A bone marrow biopsy can diagnose various types of leukemia, anemia, multiple myeloma, and platelet-related diseases.

In addition, bone marrow aspiration can also determine whether some malignant tumors have bone marrow metastasis, such as lung cancer, breast cancer, stomach cancer, prostate cancer, and so on. If bone marrow metastasis occurs, corresponding tumor cells can be found in bone marrow examination.
