Abstract

The bone marrow scans with colloidal $^{198}Au$ were performed on 33 cases with hematologically normal patients and patients with various blood dyscrasia. Bone marrow aspirations were done at iliac crest in all cases but one. A correlation between the scan findings and an erythroid cellularity was evaluated. The following results were obtained. 1) Out of 33 cases, 23 (about 70%) showed a correlation between $^{198}Au$ marrow uptakes on the scans and the erythroid cellularity. 2) The diseases in which no correlation existed between $^{198}Au$ uptake and erythroid cellularity were aplastic anemia, acute leukemia and chronic myelogenous leukemia.
