Bone marrow biopsy is the only way to confirm Mylofibrosis. It diagnoses what level by measuring scarring. I have had three to monitor any change in scarring. Fortunate so far…I have ET a with Jak2 and multiple genetic markers which reall confirm nothing, but the increase in number can increase risks. Currently switched fro Hydrea to Jakafi….certainly feel Less medicated…good luck
