Where does hemotopoiesies occur in adults?
In adults, the majority of hematopoiesis occurs in the bone marrow, particularly the marrow of the pelvis, vertebrae, ribs, sternum, and cranium. Some hematopoiesis may still occur in the long bones such as the tibia and femur, but this is more common in children. The lymph nodes also play a small role in hematopoiesis throughout life.
What is Reactive bone marrow edema within the L5 pedicles bilaterally mean?
Reactive bone marrow is a polyclonal bone marrow response meaning that the bone marrow is overproducing one or more cell types as part of the immune response. Edema is swelling caused by the overproduction of cells. Pedicles are part of the vertebrae that make up the spine, the part which connects the body and spinous process. L means lumbar and bilaterally means both sides so it means that the reactive bone marrow edema is occurring in both pedicles of the vertebrae.
Where are red blood cells made in the body?
for young children, red blood cells are made in the bone marrow, (the soft tissues inside the bone). for teens/adults they are made in the bone marrow mostly in the vertebrae(spine, etc.)

What is red marrow conversion?
Normal bone marrowBone marrow aspiration Bone marrow biopsy Bone marrow culture Bone marrow from hip Bone marrow transplant has yellow marrow and red marrow. Yellow marrow is more of fat and red marrow is more of haematopoitic tissue. in infants marrow is predominantly hematopoietic with the exception of epiphyses & apophyses, which are predominantly fatty throughout life. with skeletal growth, red marrow is gradually replaced by fat. red marrow persistis longer in the vertebrae, pelvic bones, sternum, & proximal ends of the long tubular bones, during normal marrow conversion, residual islands of red marrow may subsist in the yellow marrow, as may fatty foci in red marrow.islands of red marrow residue may be a normal variant especially in obese women, cigarette smokers, marathon runners. It may be pathological some times in cases of hemolytic processes / anemia.
In adults why is bone marrow for biopsy taken from the sternum iliac crest or spinous processes of the vertebrae rather than other sites?

Where is red marrow located in an adult long bone?
In the centre cavities of all the bones in your body. (There's a lot in your legs, since the bones are quite big and have a large cavity). the bone marrow is located inside the bone in da middle of the bone. It is spongy. it is red when your a child, and turns yellow when your an adult. Bone marrow is the spongy tissue in the cavities of the bones. It is the blood cell 'factory'. Healthy bone marrow releases blood cells into the blood stream when they are mature and when required.
