[Needles for bone marrow examination]
Abstract
Over the past decades, numerous new bone biopsy needles have been introduced. Pathological investigation requires sufficiently large and well-preserved specimens. This article reviews the literature concerning the quality of the instruments. Comparison of the various types of needles in controlled studies is not available. Bone-marrow biopsy is discussed in the context of obtaining optimal specimens and choice of biopsy needle.
