Abstract
A method to construct a wax-sheet model of rat and human glomeruli which are able to be divided into several segments is presented. Based on the wax model consisting of segments, a glomerulus model was developed, showing the axis of the glomerulus capillaries formed by an iron wire. It was possible to precisely follow the course of the capillaries.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
