| 1. | This appears to be consistent with the findings in alveolar cancellous bone.
|
| 2. | Bone tissue gives rigidity to the bone and a cortical and cancellous bone.
|
| 3. | Cortical ( " compact " ) bone is much denser than cancellous bone.
|
| 4. | Furthermore, it is harder, stronger and stiffer than cancellous bone.
|
| 5. | It is made up of spongy cancellous bone with a shell of compact bone.
|
| 6. | Under the lamina dura is the less bright cancellous bone.
|
| 7. | "' Cancellous bone "'is synonymous with trabecular or spongy bone.
|
| 8. | These trabeculae separate the cancellous bone into tiny compartments which contain the blood producing marrow.
|
| 9. | If deformity involves both cartilage and bone, cancellous bone from iliac crest is the best replacement.
|
| 10. | Leptin decreases cancellous bone, but increases cortical bone.
