Compact bone consists of closely packed osteons or haversian systems. The osteon consists of a central canal called the osteonic (haversian) canal, which is surrounded by concentric rings (lamellae) of matrix. Between the rings of matrix, the bone cells (osteocytes) are located in spaces called lacunae.
Cancellous or Spongey Bone. Cancellous or spongey bone is found forming the core of most flat and irregular bones. It is also very prevalent in the epiphyses(ends) of long bones. The construction of this osseous tissue type is quite different than that of compact bone. One key difference is the absence of osteons! Spongey bone as the name implies is more open and in cross-section offers a compartmentalized appearance not unlike that of a sponge.
