Kidney anatomy, artwork C016 / 8660
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 body's excretory system, filtering waste from the blood and eliminating it as urine. In this artwork, we can observe the two main regions of the kidney: the outer cortex and inner medulla. The medulla is further divided into distinct areas known as renal pyramids, which are visible in different shades against a striking black background. 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 image, responsible for carrying urine to its final destination - the bladder. Highlighted by vibrant colors and precise detailing, this illustration also emphasizes key components such as blood vessels that supply and drain blood from the kidney. The renal artery delivers oxygenated blood while waste-laden blood exits through the renal vein. Overall, this visually stunning artwork not only provides an accurate representation of kidney anatomy but also serves as a reminder of their crucial function within our bodies' complex systems.
