Kidney Anatomy and Location - Medical Illustration Guide #3236526 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays a sagittal cross-section of a human kidney alongside a full-body silhouette indicating bilateral kidney placement near the spine, just below the ribcage. Key anatomical features labeled include the renal cortex (outer layer), medulla (inner tissue with pyramids), major and minor calyces (urine-collecting structures), renal pelvis, and associated vasculature (renal artery and vein) leading to the ureter. The diagram is ideal for educational use in physiology, nephrology, or patient counseling contexts.

Used on health education websites, medical school resources, or urology/nephrology patient portals to explain kidney structure and function; matches user intent for learning basic renal anatomy or understanding diagnostic imaging reports.
