Bone, SEM. Spongy bone. Coloured scanning electron micrograph
Spongy bone. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of freeze-fractured spongy bone tissue. It shows the matrix of collagen and calcium crystals that form the structure of bone tissue. The tissue is part of one of the bony bars (trabeculae) that make up spongy bone. Spongy bone, also called cancellous bone, is found deep inside bones, below a dense shell of hard " compact" bone. It consists of a network of hard trabeculae separated by interconnected spaces, giving a mesh-like structure. Although it appears fragile, spongy bone has an important supportive and strengthening role. Magnification: x2000 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of spongy bone tissue. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the image reveals the vibrant colors and detailed structure of freeze-fractured bone matrix. Spongy bone, also known as cancellous bone, forms an essential part of our skeletal system. The photograph highlights the network of collagen fibers and calcium crystals that compose this type of bone tissue. These trabeculae create a mesh-like structure with interconnected spaces, giving spongy bone its distinctive appearance. Despite its delicate appearance, spongy bone plays a crucial role in supporting and strengthening our bones. With a magnification level of x2000 at 6x7cm size, this microscopic image offers viewers an up-close look at the histology and anatomy of healthy human bones. The SEM technique used here allows for enhanced visualization and exploration into the fascinating world within our bodies. Science Photo Library continues to provide remarkable scientific imagery that educates and inspires audiences worldwide. This particular photograph serves as a testament to their commitment to capturing stunning visuals while shedding light on important subjects such as human anatomy, mineral composition, and histological structures found within our bodies' framework.
