kidney vasculature
A vasculature that is part of a kidney. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.
What the kidney vasculature is
A vasculature that is part of a kidney. The atlas records it as a region at the region scale in the human body.
Where the kidney vasculature is
It sits in the abdomen and trunk, within the cardiovascular and urinary systems. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.
What the kidney vasculature connects to
The atlas records 10 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of kidney.
Supply and innervation
This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the kidney vasculature. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Questions
Where is the kidney vasculature?
It sits in the abdomen and trunk, within the cardiovascular and urinary systems. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.
What does the kidney vasculature connect to?
Part of: kidney.
Is the kidney vasculature the same in other species?
Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
