Low Hemoglobin, Low Platelet Counts. US Of Kidneys, MRI And MRA Done. Advised Bone Marrow Biopsy. Reason?

The other area which needs to be examined is the bone marrow. I agree that a bone marrow biopsy might be indicated to see if there some type of primary bone marrow disorder which could be causing an elevation of the hemoglobin and a decrease in the platelet count.
A bone marrow biopsy is a procedure that the hematologist can perform. A pathologist will then look at the bone marrow biopsy carefully under the microscope to give the hematologist a good idea of what might because your problem. The hematologist can then formulate a plan of appropriate follow-up and treatment if the treatment is indicated.
Thanks again for sending your question. Please let me know if you have any additional specific concerns.
