MULLER, Daniel Curvello de Mendonça et al. Techniques and bone marrow sites sampling in dogs and cats. Cienc. Rural [online]. 2009, vol.39, n.7, pp. 2243-2251.  Epub 07-Ago-2009. ISSN 0103-8478.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-84782009005000153.

Currently, the research focuses on bone marrow as a potential source for the treatment of diseases, since its use as a diagnosis is already largely employed. This paper aims to promote a practical review on the best access to the bone marrow and the importance of this material as diagnosis and treatment. Sampling techniques are observed and detailed by the authors, in order to facilitate the procedures and make them safer.
