Illustration of the anatomy of the human kidney showing on the left a frontal or coronal plane and on the right the renal pelvis and sinus. The cortex has many glomeruli, the site of initial blood filtration. The deeper medulla contains renal tubules and the collecting ducts that empty urine into the calyces of the renal pelvis.
