Attachment of the osteoclast to the osteon begins the process.

The boundary of an osteon is the cement line.

The primary anatomical and functional unit of cortical bone is the osteon.

When replacement to compact bone occurs, this blood vessel becomes the central canal of the osteon.

The canals and the surrounding lamellae (8-15) are called a Haversian system or an osteon.

Osseointegration derives from the Greek osteon, bone, and the Latin integrare, to make whole.

The scientific name is derived from the Greek osteon (bone) and Latin spermum (seed).

Compact bone consists of a repeating structure called a Haversian system, or osteon, which is the primary anatomical and functional unit.

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

A "drifting osteon" is classified as one that runs both longitudinally as well as transversely through the cortex.

The genus name Lepisosteus comes from the Greek lepis meaning "scale" and osteon meaning "bone".

The name is derived from the Greek word osteon, meaning "bone", and the Old French word breme, a type of freshwater fish.

High profile works in design include the Osteon Chair, AI Stool and AI Light.

Osteitis is derived from oste-, from Greek, osteon meaning "bone", and -itis meaning a disease characterized by inflammation.

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.

Still named his new school of medicine "osteopathy," reasoning that "the bone, osteon, was the starting point from which [he] was to ascertain the cause of pathological conditions."

Bone is a form of connective tissue found in the body and has a storage area, or osteon region, also called matrix that allows mineral salts such as calcium to be stored.

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.

He invented the name "osteopathy" by blending two Greek roots osteon- for bone and-pathos for suffering in order to communicate his theory that disease and physiologic dysfunction were etiologically grounded in a disordered musculoskeletal system.

The genus name was given by Linnaeus, and named because of the sprawling nature of the plants: Greek holos, meaning whole or all, and osteon, meaning bone, because of the frailty of the plant.

Osteomyelitis (sometimes abbreviated to OM, and derived from Greek words osteon, meaning bone, myelo- meaning marrow, and -itis meaning inflammation) is infection and inflammation of the bone or bone marrow.

The generic name is derived from Greek teichos, "wall", and osteon, "bone", referring to the fact that the vertebrae, though hollow inside, had no lateral pneumatic foramina, openings in the side wall for air sacks to invade the bone.

Megistotherium (from Greek, megistos "greatest" + therion "beast" and osteon 'bone' + thlaston 'crushed, bruised' with -es being an agent noun: 'bone-crusher') is an extinct genus of creodonts, the only known species of which is Megistotherium osteothlastes.
