Ultrasound could make painful bone marrow tests more accurate
NCT ID NCT05258357
Summary
This study compares two methods for performing bone marrow biopsies, a common test for blood cancers and disorders. Researchers are testing whether using an ultrasound machine to guide the needle improves the quality of the tissue sample and reduces patient pain compared to the standard method of feeling for landmarks. The study involves 100 adult hospital patients who need this biopsy for diagnosis.
