Overview
Other diagnostic studies for polycythemia vera include bone marrow aspiration and trephine biopsy. Erythropoietin levels can also be measured.
Other diagnostic studies
Other diagnostic studies for polycythemia vera include:
- Bone marrow aspiration
- This invasive proceduret sometimes is required for the diagnosis of polycythemia vera.
- It usually shows high proportions of leukocytes, erythrocytes, and thrombocytes. This is referred to as panmyelosis. [1]

Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. After a small area of skin is numbed, a Jamshidi needle (a long, hollow needle) is inserted into the patient’s hip bone. Samples of blood, bone, and bone marrow are removed for examination under a microscope.[2]
