Abstract

Bone marrow is becoming commonly employed in the evaluation of hematopoietic system disorders. It has been shown that bone marrow collection techniques are safe, easy, and can be carried out in veterinary practices. This study aimed to provide clinicians with information about the indications of bone marrow aspiration, and the techniques for sample collection and slide preparation.
