Cancellous bone, also known as trabecular or spongy bone, appears as a lighter, more radiolucent area on a radiographic image compared to the denser cortical bone. It typically presents a network of trabecular patterns or struts, which can vary in density and arrangement depending on the location and health of the bone. The overall appearance can be somewhat porous, reflecting its softer structure, and is often seen in areas such as the vertebrae, pelvis, and the ends of long bones.

What is found in the cancellous bone but not in compact bone?
Cancellous bone, also known as trabecular or spongy bone, contains red bone marrow, which is involved in the production of blood cells. This type of bone features a network of trabeculae that create a porous structure, allowing for the storage of marrow. In contrast, compact bone is denser and primarily serves as a structural support, lacking the same extensive marrow spaces found in cancellous bone.
