MICROanatomy Kidney Model

The MICROanatomy Kidney Model is an extremely detailed model showing the morphologic/functional units of the kidney, with a high magnification. The model is perfect for illustrating the structures of the human kidney responsible for the production of urine.

Contents of the MICROanatomy Kidney Model

The model features six zones, all of which display one of the following fine-tissue structures of the kidney:

• Longitudinal section of a kidney
• Section of renal cortex and renal medulla of the kidney
• Wedge-shaped section of a kidney lobe with a diagrammatic depiction of three nephrons with Henle’s loops of different lengths and diagrammatic depiction of the vascular supply
• Diagrammatic illustration of a kidney nephron with a short Henle’s loop and didactic/diagrammatic illustration of the vascular supply
• Diagrammatic illustration of an opened kidney renal corpuscle with nephron and light-microscopic transverse sections of the proximal, attenuated and distal segments of a renal tubule
• Diagrammatic/didactic illustration of an opened kidney renal corpuscle
