Dear friends
Please help me with "cancellous bone". I've found on the web and dictionaries "cancellous tissues" but not bones.
Tell me is the translation "hueso canceloso" correct?
Do you know what does it mean?
Thank you a lot for your help
Here is the context:
The right iliac blade is 80% missing. Rodent gnaw marks were noted. Posterior portions of the blade that remain are bone but cortical bone eroded on medial side and is mainly "cancellous bone".

Hueso esponjoso es un sinónimo, pero he traducido muchos artículos sobre osteoporosis del español al inglés y el autor utilizaba hueso trabecular (España).

: Tienes razón, Barbara. En el Diccionario crítico de dudas inglés - español de medicina, de Fernando Navarro, aparecen ambos términos como sinónimos. Hace poco traduje varios capítulos de un libro (para España) donde el cliente prefería "esponjoso".
