Schematic cross-section shows multiple osteons in compact (cortical) bone, each formed by concentric lamellae around a central Haversian canal (HC) containing blood vessels and nerve fibers. Osteocytes occupy lacunae between lamellae, linked by canaliculi, and cement lines outline neighboring osteons with interstitial lamellae between them. In histology and anatomy, this microanatomical structure represents osteocytes within osteons within bone tissue, supporting mechanical strength while enabling vascular perfusion and nutrient-waste exchange.
