11: There are two pictures below, please select the one which you think is a bone marrow aspirate
(A or B)?
This requires recognition of morphological appearance. A is a bone marrow aspirate and B is a bone marrow biopsy
bone marrow aspirate: For a bone marrow aspiration they put a needle through your skin and into your bone. Then using a syringe they draw out some liquid bone marrow.
12: One of the pictures shows below come from the blood film of a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia (a type of blood cancer with increased white blood cells), which one is it? A or B
B
A is normal blood film with a neutrophil and few platelets and numerous red blood cells. B has increased neutrophils and platelets with few lymphocytes, a monocyte and red blood cells.

A
B
C:.Recognition of morphology (C= Monocyte)
D
E
