How Much Do You Know About The Bone Marrow Aspiration Procedure Used in Medicine?

Bone marrow aspiration is the extraction of a very small amount (usually 0.2cc) of bone marrow fluid from the posterior superior iliac spine or anterior superior iliac spine, sternum, lumbar spine, tibia and other parts of the body through a special puncture needle for laboratory examination, which is one of the most common routine examination methods for diagnosing blood diseases and other diseases.
