Except for the hardest sections of compact bone, bones are living tissue, and so must be provided with oxygen and the materials to maintain or repair themselves. The interior of most bones are an open framework of spongy tissue called trabecular or cancellous bone. In the outer bone, the Haversian Canals form conduits for nerves and blood vessels.

There is a fibrous sheath called a periosteum that contains blood vessels which supply oxygen and nutrients to the bone tissues. Blood vessels get in and out of the bones by little openings called nutrient canals.
