What is Ossification?
What is ossification? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.157.10.2 (talk) 16:43, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Ossification also has another meaning: in the field of data science. "big data processes need to morph over time as organizations reconfigure or develop new capabilities to achieve results from big data insights. Therefore, big data processes cannot be allowed to ossify." When such morphing does not take place one speaks of 'ossification'.

 * I agree with the above point and suggest to have a separate article titled Ossification (Data Science) -- Dr. Abhijeet Safai (talk) 07:10, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Is this the same as osteogenesis? --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 12:43, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Which is which?
"In fracture healing, endochondral osteogenesis is the most commonly occurring process, for example in fractures of long bones treated by plaster of Paris, whereas fractures treated by open reduction and stabilization by metal plate and screws may heal by intramembranous osteogenesis." - From the Ossification article.

"It is also an essential process during the natural healing of bone fractures[2]" - From the Intramembranous ossification article.

Kind of unclear which process is most used in fracture healing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.239.228.134 (talk) 18:33, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Intramembranous ossification description is wrong
The description of intramembranous ossification is very wrong here. The page at Intramembranous_ossification provides a very good explanation. Could someone with more time please fix this? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.244.120.30 (talk) 16:17, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

THE PROCESS OF OSSIFICATION
Ossification is the process by which bone tissue is formed,it begins before birth and not complete until 21yrs of age..short,long and irregular bones develop in the foetus from rods of cartilage called cartilage models,flat bones develop from membrane models and sesamoid bones from tendon models,during this process,osteoblasts secrete osteoid which gradually replaces the initial models,osteoid is progressively calcified by osteoblast action..as the bone grows,osteoblasts become wrapped in a matrix of their own making thus forming osteocytes — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sandra Namukobe (talk • contribs) 06:44, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
