Renal anatomy and physiology programs studying nephron structure and glomerular filtration at the cellular level benefit from magnified models, and this 3B Scientific MICROanatomy Kidney model provides exceptional detail of the morphological and functional kidney units.

The 3B MICROanatomy Kidney is an extremely detailed model which shows the morphologic/functional units of the kidney. The kidney structures are greatly magnified. Six model zones illustrate the following fine-tissue structures of the human kidney that serve in the production of urine:

• 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
