* | ==Bone anatomy== | ||
** | *Epiphysis = rounded end of the bone. | ||
*Metaphysis = between epiphysis and diaphysis; contains ''epiphyseal plate'' - site of growth in childhood. | |||
*Diaphysis = shaft, mid-portion, contains [[bone marrow]]. | |||

==Bone histology== | |||
Two types (based on arrangement of collagen): | |||
# Woven bone. | |||
# Lamellar bone. | |||
===Woven bone=== | |||
*Always abnormal in adults. | |||
*Collagen arranged haphazardly - mechanically weak. | |||

===Lamellar bone=== | |||
[[File:Lamella bone H&E and under polarised light.gif|thumb|Animated GIF showing a photomicrograph of lamellar bone. The layers are accentuated under polarised light.]] | |||
*Collagen organized in layers (lamellae). | |||
===Woven versus lamellar=== | |||
*Easiest way to differentiate: polarize; lamellar bone has well-defined layers. | |||
==Bone cells== | |||
*Osteocytes. | |||
**Sit in lacunae. | |||
***Empty lacunae = necrotic bone. | |||
*Osteoblasts. | |||
**Make bone. | |||
*Osteoclasts. | |||
**Destroy bone. | |||
