I have an insurance claim for lab work for a bone marrow biopsy performed on me in November, 2009. The sample was shipped from my physician's office in Abington, PA to a lab in Michigan run by Bashar Dabbas, MD. Total cost submitted by the lab: $14,985.00. (Note: this does NOT include the cost of the procedure itself which was around $1000.00) Unbeknownst to me, this doctor is NOT on CIGNA's in-network list and my out of pocket expenses for the lab work is $2000.00. (Copay on the procedure itself was $40.) Ask your specialist beforehand about these costs so you are not shocked when the bill arrives.

Spongy bone tissue is not as highly arranged as compact bone tissue because it doesn't do as much of the weight supporting function as compact bone. Its tissue is arranged in a sponge-like pattern of bony plates called trabeculae. The spaces between these trabeculae are filled with bone marrow which is where our blood cells are made. Spongy bone makes up most of the tissue of flat, short, and irregularly shaped bones.
The amount of money that it will cost to do vaginal biopsy cost varies from one place to another. On average it will cost between $1,200 and $2,500.
Infants grow relatively fast and need quite a lot of red blood cells, which are only produced in red bone marrow. As the infants grow older, much of the red bone marrow is gradually replaced by yellow bone marrow containing a special kind of fat that gives it its yellowish color. If the body needs more red blood cells than the remaining red marrow is capable of producing, some of the yellow marrow changes to red marrow.
The cost of a bone marrow biopsy in the United States is $360. The Philippines offer bone marrow biopsies for 50% less than those done in the United States.
CT Scan Guided Muscle Biopsy = 1500 inr Muscle Biopsy = 497 inr Bone Biopsy = 19,347 inr Bone Biopsy is costlier because stem cell research is a recent introduction to medical science leading to finding of one of the medical procedures called Bone Biopsy. Bone Biopsy differs in cost again in 3 types. Cost based on the physician and the hospital. The above given rate is in general medical hospitals in India. The 3 Types. They are:- 1. Incisional Bone Biopsy (Small bone sample with complete tissue structure present) 2. Excisional Biopsy (Large bone sample covering the total area of disease) 3. Needle Aspiration Biopsy (Tissue fluid removal without tissue structure taken into consideration)

A bone marrow aspiration, biopsy, or both are done to: * Look for the cause of problems with red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets in people who have conditions such as thrombocytopenia, anemia, or an abnormal white blood cell count. * Find blood disorders, such as leukemia, certain anemias, or problems that affect the bone marrow, such as multiple myeloma or polycythemia vera. * Check to see if a known cancer, such as Hodgkin's lymphoma or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, has spread to the bone marrow. This is part of what is called staging. It is done to find out if the cancer has spread and how much it has spread. This helps plan cancer treatment. Staging can be done for other cancers, such as prostate, breast, or lung cancer that may have spread to the bone. * Find infections or tumors that may start in or spread to the bone marrow. If you have an infection, a culture and sensitivity test of the bone marrow sample may be used to find out which antibiotics will work best to treat the infection. * Find the best treatment for a bone marrow problem. Once treatment has been started, a bone marrow aspiration and biopsy may be done to see if the leukemia cells are gone, which means the treatment is working. * Collect a sample of bone marrow for medical procedures, such as stem cell transplantation or chromosomal analysis.

If you're a British citizen then all treatment costs should be free under the NHS.
Pretty much... It has some other ingredients too.
