Renal Parenchymal Disease

  • Chapter
Pediatric Uroradiology

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Diagn Imaging))

Abstract

The renal parenchyma is divided into three main compartments:

  • The cortex with glomeruli which create the primary ultrafiltrate; the juxtaglomerular apparatus, and the cortical proximal and distal tubules, which are responsible for processing the primary urine thereby maintaining body homeostasis.

  • The medulla including the Henle loop performing salt and water reabsorption, involved in concentrating and diluting mechanisms, and medullary collecting ducts for final reabsorption draining the urine through the papilla into the renal collecting system.

  • The interstitium, i.e., connective tissue and vasculature, of both compartments (cortex and medulla), including lymphatic tissue.
