How the model is used in teaching
The femur, or thigh bone, is the longest and strongest bone in the body. Like all bone it is living tissue, supplied by blood vessels that bring the nutrients needed for constant repair and renewal. When bone is broken down faster than it is rebuilt, it becomes thin and porous. This condition, osteoporosis, is most common in older adults and makes the upper femur a frequent site of fracture after a fall.
By showing osteoporosis together with the blood vessels, the model links the structure of bone to its health. Teachers use it to discuss the roles of calcium, vitamin D and exercise in keeping bones strong, and to explain why a hip fracture in an elderly person is so serious.
