$Section through a human femur or upper leg bone. The bone has been sectioned to show the trabeculae that form the internal supportive structure of long bones. In old age, the density of the neck of the femur decreases (osteoporosis) and the hip becomes vulnerable to fracture.$

$Section through the shaft of a human femur or upper leg bone. The bone has been sectioned to show the trabeculae that form the internal supportive structure of long bones. In old age, the density of trabeculae decreases (osteoporosis) and the bones become vulnerable to fracture.$

$Section through the lower (distal) end of the human femur or upper leg bone that forms part of the knee. The bone has been sectioned to show the trabeculae that form the internal supportive structure of long bones. The ends of long bones are filled with trabeculae and are called spongy or cancellous bone. In old age, the density of trabeculae decreases (osteoporosis) and the bones become vulnerable to fracture.$

$Section through the upper (proximal) end of the human humerus or arm bone that forms part of the shoulder joint. The bone has been sectioned to show the trabeculae that form the internal supportive structure of long bones. In old age, the density of trabeculae decreases (osteoporosis) and bones become vulnerable to fracture. The ends of long bones that are filled with trabeculae are called spongy or cancellous bone, and the outside is called compact bone.$
