Hi lizab,

The cellularity of bone marrow can be patchy, meaning high in some places and low in others. Also, the reading of the cellularity is a little subjective, meaning that two different doctors looking at the same specimen may not give the exact same response, although they should be in the same ballpark.

Given your son's age, his marrow is still hypocellular. I don't think you can interpret more than that since they gave a range last time.
