How does osteoporosis affect bone structure?
With osteoporosis, there is reduced bone density and structure in the spongy bone, as well as thinning of the cortical bone. When your bones have thinned to the point that osteoporosis is diagnosed, the physical structure — and soundness — of your bones has changed.
What is the difference between normal bone and osteoporosis?
The normal bone shows a pattern of strong interconnected plates of bone. Much of this bone is lost in osteoporosis and the remaining bone has a weaker rod-like structure. Moreover some of the rods are completely disconnected.
What is bone resorption and osteoporosis?
In adults, the daily removal of small amounts of bone mineral, a process called resorption, is balanced by an equal deposition of new mineral in order to maintain bone strength. When this balance tips toward excessive resorption, bones weaken and over time can become brittle and prone to fracture (osteoporosis).

In osteoporosis, the coupling mechanism between osteoclasts and osteoblasts is thought to be unable to keep up with the constant microtrauma to trabecular bone.
