What Is Non Lamellar Bone

(wō’vĕn bōn) Bony tissue characteristic of the embryonal skeleton, in which the collagen fibers of the matrix are arranged irregularly in the form of interlacing networks. Synonym(s): nonlamellar bone, reticulated bone.

What is the difference between lamellar bone and compact bone?

Whereas compact bone tissue forms the outer layer of all bones, spongy bone or cancellous bone forms the inner layer of all bones. Spongy bone tissue does not contain osteons that constitute compact bone tissue. Instead, it consists of trabeculae, which are lamellae that are arranged as rods or plates.

What is laminar bone?

A thin layer of bone, membrane, or other tissue.
