Renal/GU - LUQ Kidney Long Axis
Caption
This clip fans through the left kidney in long axis. The hyperechoic central area is the renal pelvis and calyces, the darker hypoechoic area surrounding it is the renal cortex. The renal pyramids are visible as anechoic triangles within the medulla. Deep to the kidney we see the hyperechoic spine;on the left of the screen the spleen comes in and out of view.
