8.25 Epiphyseal plate

Version française

Section of a growing long bone of a dog. The framed area is shown at a higher magnification in Figure 8.26.

This field shows the variable appearance of epiphyseal plates from one animal to another.

In this case, the zone of resting cartilage is wide. The sizes of the zones of proliferating chondrocytes and of chondrocyte hypertrophy also differ from those seen in figures 8.22 and 8.24.

Stain: H–E
Magnification: ×300
