Description
Normal cancellous (spongy) bone from a human femur (thigh bone). Bone tissue is either compact or cancellous. Both forms are usually present in any particular bone of the body. Cancellous bone is characterized by the arrangement of bone tissue as an open honeycomb. It consists of trabeculae (bars) and spicules of bone separated by large spaces which contain the bone marrow.
