“…Additionally, while many approaches, both palpation and image guided, have been described for PSIS bone marrow aspiration, fewer approaches have been described for ASIS. [28][29][30][31][32] We have previously validated an ultrasound guided technique to guide aspiration of the PSIS, and here we describe a novel approach for bone marrow aspiration at the anterior iliac crest utilizing ultrasound guidance to facilitate safe needle placement using a human cadaveric model. We hypothesize the technique to be safe, reproducible, and valid for satisfactorily harvesting bone marrow as demonstrated by latex dye confirmation on the iliac crest after repeated ultrasound guided cortical penetrations.…”
