Kidney anatomy, artwork C016 / 8662
Kidney anatomy, artwork. The kidneys filter waste from the blood and excrete it as urine. The kidney consists of an outer cortex and an inner medulla. The medulla is divided into regions called the renal pyramids. Each renal pyramid drains into a renal papilla (yellow). The renal papillae merge to form the ureter (yellow, bottom), which carries the urine to the bladder. Blood is carried to the kidney by the renal artery and away from it by the renal vein

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of a kidney, beautifully illustrated by Russell Kightley. The kidneys play a vital role in our bodies, acting as filters that remove waste from the blood and excrete it as urine. In this artwork, we can observe the outer cortex and inner medulla of the kidney. The medulla is further divided into renal pyramids, which are clearly visible in this image. Each pyramid drains into a renal papilla, depicted in yellow hues. These renal papillae then merge together to form the ureter at the bottom of the illustration, responsible for transporting urine to the bladder. Highlighted against a black background, this artwork emphasizes not only its aesthetic appeal but also its scientific significance. It provides an insightful glimpse into our excretory system's complexity and showcases various components such as blood vessels (renal artery and vein) that facilitate kidney function. Russell Kightley's meticulous attention to detail brings life to this anatomical masterpiece. This print serves as an excellent educational resource for biology enthusiasts or medical professionals seeking a deeper understanding of human physiology. With its focus on organ structure and functionality, it sheds light on how our bodies eliminate nitrogenous waste through efficient filtration processes within these remarkable organs - our kidneys!
