Bone Marrow Aspiration & Biopsy

Bone Marrow Aspiration & Biopsy

We offer expert Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy services—essential tools in diagnosing and monitoring various blood disorders and cancers. These procedures help assess the health and function of the bone marrow, which is crucial in producing blood cells.

What Is Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy?

  • Bone Marrow Aspiration involves collecting a small sample of the liquid portion of the marrow, usually from the hip bone.

  • Bone Marrow Biopsy involves removing a small core of solid tissue from the same area.

Both are typically done in a single session and are safe, minimally invasive, and essential in hematology and oncology care.

Why It’s Performed:

  • To diagnose blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma

  • To investigate unexplained anemia, low or high blood counts

  • To monitor treatment response in blood cancer patients

  • To diagnose bone marrow infections or storage disorders

  • To assess iron stores or fibrosis in the marrow

Procedure & Comfort:

Performed under local anesthesia, the procedure is quick and handled with utmost care by our experienced team, led by Dr. Amol Kotalwar, a Senior Consultant in Medical & Hemato-Oncology. Patients are closely monitored post-procedure and can usually return home the same day.
