During the past twenty years sternal marrow
examination has become increasinp'ly important in the
study of diseases of the blood forming organs. i .ïany
reviews of the importance of this method of
investigation have appeared in the literature from
time to time but some of them have concentrated on
only one aspect of the subject, whilst the more
comprehensive ones have failed in some respects to
deal adequately with the subject.

The first part of this thesis is devoted to
a comprehensive review of this subject and includes a description of a method of, procuring marrow by sternal
puncture and the technique of staining smears.

In the second part of the thesis is a detailed account of the value of marrow examination in
diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of the diseases of
the blood forming organs, based upon my own personal
ex:cerience of approximately eighty cases, which
necessitated the .performance of over a hundred sternal
punctures.
