Parts of the Kidney
Anatomy of the Kidney
Artistic rendition showing cortex, medulla pyramids, papilla, calyces, infundibula, renal pelvis and proximal ureter. Also shown are the arteries and arterioles, glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, loop of henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct, venule and veins

Kidneys with Renal Arteries In and Renal Veins Out
?Kidneys with Renal Arteries In and Renal Veins Out? is an artistically angiogram. The first phase is in the arteries and is colored in red, and the second is the venous phase in blue and shows the renal vein exiting from the kidney after the blood has circulated through the kidneys.

Kidneys Doing the Rock and Roll with the Renal Arteries and Veins Holding Tight
?Kidneys Doing the Rock and Roll with Arteries and Veins Holding Tight? is the venous phase of an MRI angiogram . The kidneys each in different party colors, with a background of pastel colors gives a feeling or mood of celebration and delight. The way they are bonded with vein on vein and artery on artery provides the sense of partners holding tight in a rock and roll dance at the festivity.

Summer Time in the Kidney Tree
This art piece shows a color Doppler of the kidney and outlines the renovascular tree . The black and white has been replaced by a skyblue color, while the red and blue of the Doppler has been replaced by the green, blue and purples of summer color. The image has been given an impressionistic feel with a Seurat pointillism effect. The result is an image that has a feel of Seurat?s ?A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte

Time for the Fall Time for the Winter
This artpiece teaches us the unpredictability of fate and time .The power Doppler ultrasound of the kidneys shows a variation of the renal vasculature. On the left side the vascular system is abundant, while on the right side, just the skeleton of the veins is demonstrated. The artist saw this image as an opportunity to explore concepts such as opposites, abundance, paucity, situational changes, time, and life lessons. Relevant quotes include ?Make Hay while the Sun Shines? and ?Time for Every Every Season? . Artistically a sharp line differentiates the left side from the right. This abrupt change from the one season to the next infers unpredictable, and fateful situational change in life. In this case -there is a seasonal change, but the situation could just as easily reflect an abrupt change with the arrival of a devastating disease on the doorstep of life.

Derivation of the Renal Vein Flowers
A color Doppler ultrasound image (top left) is added to a color flow Doppler image of the carotid arteries to create a flower (top right). This is then rendered into three different colored flowers

Fish Eye View of a Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules
?Fish Eye View of a Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules? is a sphere providing a a view of the tissues making up the micro-tubular structure of the filtering system of the kidneys.
The connections between the tubular systems, arteries and veins, and the positioning of the loops of Henle are essential to the micro-function and macro-function of the kidney.
The style of spherism provides a sense of wholeness.

Ocean View of a Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules at Sunset
?Ocean View of a Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules at Sunset? depicts the tissues making up the micro-tubular structure of the filtering system of the kidneys.
The inter-connectivity of the tubular systems, arteries and veins, and the positioning of the loops of Henle are essential to the performance of the micro-function and macro-function of the kidney.
The art piece has a surreal appearance with the sun at the bottom of the ocean and the tubules of the nephron with shapes reminiscent of Miro. In addition there is a sense of spherism with the vacsular syatem surrounding the nephron and the round shape of the sun. The water theme and the colors create a quiet and peaceful ambiance.

Moods of the Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules in All Colors
?Moods of the Kidney Nephron with Glomerulus Bowman?s Tubules Henle Arterioles and Venules in All Colors? is collage of the tissues making up the micro-structure of the filtering system of the kidneys in different colors.
The bonding , bridging by the tubular systems, arteries and veins, and he positioning of the loops of Henle are key to the performance of the micro-function and macro-function of the kidney.
