BONE STRUCTURE






                      We distinguish 2 parts of a long bone:

                          • the epiphysis


                          • the diaphysis





































                      The main elements of a bone are:


                          • the periosteum


                          • the compact bone

                          • the cancellous bone


                          • the marrow cavity
