Analysis of the three dimensional structure of the kidney glomerulus capillary network

Abstract The capillary network of the kidney glomerulus filters small molecules from the blood. The glomerular 3D structure should help to understand its function, but it is poorly characterized. We therefore devised a new approach in which an automated tape collecting microtome (ATUM) was used to c...
