Title: Scheme of human kidney
Description:
Kidney, scheme, human.
Right side vertical strip with blue/red characters: (1) Cortex.
(2) Medulla.
(3) Outer zone of the renal medulla.
(4) Inner zone of the renal medulla.
Left side with nephrons:
(1) Cortex.
(2) Medulla, with the outer zone (3) and with the inner zone (4) of the medulla.
(5) Outer stripe of the outer zone.
(6) Inner stripe of the outer zone.
(7) Arteriola efferens leaving the glomerulus.
(8) Macula densa (MD).
(9) Pars contorta I or proximal convoluted tubule (PCT).
(10) Pars recta I or proximal straight tubule (PST).
(11) Henle’s loop (short-looped and long-looped nephrons).
(12) Pars recta II or distal straight tubule (DST) or thick ascending limb (TAL).
(13) Pars contorta II or distal convoluted tubule (DCT); last part is connecting tubule.
(CNT) toward (14) Collecting duct divided in cortical collecting duct (CCD), an outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD) and
an inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD).
(15) Arteria arcuata.
(16) Arteria corticalis radiata (interlobular artery).
(17) Arteriola medullaris recta (vasa recta).
(18) Arteriola afferens.
(19) Arteriola efferens.
(22) Capsula fibrosa.
(24) Glomerulus (glomerular tuft).
(25) Thin ascending limb. (ATL) (long-looped nephron).
(26) Thin descending limb (DTL) (long-looped nephron). Note ATL + DTL = intermediate tubule (IT).
