Other Diagnostic Studies

Protein Electrophoresis

The protein electrophoresis test should be repeated annually, and if there is any concern for a rise in the level of monoclonal protein, then prompt referral to a haematologist is required.

Bone Marrow Biopsy

Perform a bone marrow biopsy, If it is normal, a patient with MGUS is followed up once every 6 months to a year with a blood test (serum protein electrophoresis).
