Urinary System Collection

Colour MRI scan of abdomen showing kidneys & liver
Healthy kidneys. Coloured Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan of a coronal section through a human abdomen, showing healthy kidneys and liver. A front view is seen

Kidney tubules in section
Kidney tubules. Fluorescent light micrograph of a section through kidney tissue showing numerous tubules (black/green). The tubules are seen in cross-section

Female urinary bladder, artwork
Female urinary bladder, computer artwork. This organ receives and stores urine from the kidneys through the ureters (white tubes). The wrinkled bladder wall allows the bladder to expand if needed

Artwork of section through the female bladder
Female bladder. Artwork showing a section through the female urinary system. The bladder is seen as a pink sac at centre. This is a hollow organ that holds urine

Kidney glomeruli, SEM
Kidney glomeruli, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The cells that usually surround the glomeruli have been removed to reveal the coiled capillaries at the core of the glomeruli

False-colour SEM showing two renal glomeruli
False-colour scanning electron micrograph of a section of kidney cortex, showing two glomeruli (red & green). A glomerulus is a tiny knot of blood capillaries which lies cupped within a Bowmans

Kidney glomerulus, SEM
Kidney glomerulus, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Podocyte cells, which make up the surface of the glomerulus, are yellow. Magnification: x650 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

The urinary system is a complex network of organs that play a vital role in maintaining the body's overall health and balance. From the intricate kidney tubules to the colorful MRI scan showcasing the kidneys and liver, this caption explores various aspects of this fascinating system. Starting with a closer look at kidney tubules in section, we delve into their microscopic structure and function. Moving on to an eye-catching color MRI scan of the abdomen, we witness the beauty of these essential organs alongside the liver. Shifting our focus to female anatomy, we encounter artwork depicting both the urinary bladder and a section through it. These illustrations provide insight into its unique composition and how it contributes to waste elimination. Zooming in even further, we explore kidney glomeruli through scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The detailed images reveal their intricate architecture responsible for filtering blood and producing urine. Additionally, SEM captures stunning visuals of kidney blood vessels intertwined within this remarkable filtration process. Further emphasizing their significance, light micrographs showcase multiple kidney glomeruli working harmoniously together. This glimpse highlights their collective effort towards maintaining fluid balance within our bodies. Concluding with captivating artwork portraying kidneys' overall anatomy, we gain a comprehensive understanding of these crucial organs' location and structure. Through this diverse collection of visuals ranging from scientific imaging techniques to artistic representations, one can truly appreciate the complexity and importance of our urinary system.
