periosteum
A membrane surrounding a bone
(Anatomi) The periosteum is a thin layer of dense, irregular connective tissue membrane that covers the outer surface of a bone in all places except at joints. (The outer surface of bone at joints is covered with "articular cartilage", a type of hyaline cartilage.) As opposed to osseous tissue itself, periosteum has nociceptive nerve endings, making it very sensitive to manipulation. It also provides nourishment by providing the blood supply. Periosteum is attached to bone by strong collagenous fibers called Sharpey's fibres, which extend to the outer circumferential and interstitial lamellae
{n} a membrane covering the bones
a dense fibrous membrane covering the surface of bones (except at their extremities) and serving as an attachment for tendons and muscles; contains nerves and blood vessels that nourish the enclosed bone
the compact and cancellous tissues of bone together; beneath the hard outer shell of the periosteum, blood and lymphatic run through tunnels and canals to carry nourishment for the bone Muscles, ligaments, and tendons may attach to the periosteum
The periosteum is a layer of dense connective tissue that covers most of the surface of a bone, providing attachment for muscles, tendons and ligaments
{i} membrane of tough fibrous tissue covering the bones (Anatomy)
The membrane of fibrous connective tissue which closely invests all bones except at the articular surfaces
Dense membrane over bones. The outer layer contains nerve fibres and many blood vessels, which supply cells in the bone. The bone-producing cells of the inner layer are most prominent in fetal life and early childhood, when bone formation is at its peak. In adulthood they are less active but vital to continuous bone remodeling. When bone is injured, they multiply profusely to produce new bone
a thin but strong tissue layer lining the surface of bone
the sheath around the bone
Connective tissue envelope covering cortical bone
A layer of dense connective tissue that covers the surface of bones The inner layer contains osteoblasts capable of forming bone
A fibrous membrane that covers the surface of bone except at the end of the bones where it is covered with cartilage as part of a joint In children, periosteum is involved in forming new bone and molding the configuration of bone; and in the adult, the periosteum forms new bone secondary to injury or infection
the compact and cancellous tissues of bone together; beneath the hard outer shell of the periosteum, there are tunnels and canals through which blood and lymphatic vessels run to carry nourishment for the bone; muscles, ligaments, and tendons may attach to the periosteum
The membrane of connective tissue that closely enfolds all bones except at the articular surfaces
