Tumours often spread to bone and occasionally arise in bone.  Bone tumours are dealt with in the ''[[bone tumours]]'' article.

==Normal==
=Normal bone=
*Normal bone has osteocytes.
==Bone anatomy==
**If the osteocytes are missing... the bone is dead.
*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]].


*Osteoblasts - make bone.
===Image===
*Osteoclasts - destroy bone.

==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.
**Multinucleated.
