Haversian canal
canal of Havers

The Haversian canal contains the bone's nerve and blood supplies.

Haversian canals typically run parallel to the surface and along the long axis of the bone.

A Haversian canal generally contains one or two capillaries and nerve fibres.

That's the holes we're seeing, the haversian canals or canaliculi, where tiny blood vessels run through.

Dinosaurs did have - and mammals still have - minute channels for blood vessels known as Haversian canals.

Secondary Haversian canals are correlated with size and age, mechanical stress and nutrient turnover.

These canals are called Haversian canals.

They run within the osteons perpendicular to the Haversian canals, interconnecting the latter with each other and the periosteum.

An osteon can "drift" in one direction or change directions several times, leaving a tail of lamellae behind the advancing haversian canal.

The presence of secondary Haversian canals suggests comparable bone growth and lifespans in mammals and dinosaurs.

Within the bone itself, the haversian canals become blocked with scar tissue, and the bone becomes surrounded by thickened periosteum.

Armand de Ricqlès discovered Haversian canals in dinosaur bones, and argued that they were evidence of endothermy in dinosaurs.

They usually run at obtuse angles to the Haversian canals and contain anastomosing vessels between Haversian capillaries.

He is believed to have been the first person to observe and almost certainly the first to describe what are now called Haversian canals and Sharpey's fibres.

Lamellae may also refer to the concentric circles (concentric lamellae) around the central Haversian canals in the osteon of the bones.

Each osteon consists of concentric layers, or lamellae, of compact bone tissue that surround a central canal, the Haversian canal.

Haversian canals (sometimes Canals of Havers, named after British physician Clopton Havers) are a series of tubes around narrow channels formed by lamellae.

The holes are called nutrient foramina, and the nutrient artery is the major blood vessel passing through to the interior of the bone, where it branches into tiny vessels of the Haversian canal system.

Each osteon has concentric layers of mineralized matrix, called concentric lamellae, which are deposited around a central canal, also known as the Haversian canal, each containing a blood and nerve supply.

The report-a loud bang but also like the hard toll of an immense bell-rang with such vibrato, I swore that I could feel sympathetic tremors racing through the haversian canals of my bones.

The Haversian canals surround blood vessels and nerve cells throughout the bone and communicate with osteocytes in lacunae (spaces within the dense bone matrix that contain the living bone cells) through canaliculi.

Something marked by a hum that Curtis feels in his teeth, that resonates in his sinuses, and by a rapidly swelling but also quickly subsiding tingle in the Haversian canals of his bones.

Jarvil produced more X rays and tests that showed a remarkable improvement in the child's haversian canals, the elaborate network that carried small blood vessels and lymphatics throughout the bone for the purpose of maintenance and repair.
