Ostéologie

Ostéologie is the scientific study of bones. It examines the structure, function, development, and diseases of the skeletal system. This field helps us understand how bones support and protect the body, enable movement by anchoring muscles, and store minerals like calcium. It also involves identifying different bones, analyzing bone anatomy, and understanding how bones grow and heal. Ostéologie is essential in medicine, anthropology, and forensic science for diagnosing conditions, studying human evolution, and identifying remains. Overall, it provides insights into the biological and functional aspects of the skeletal framework.
