A schematic of the renal corpuscle shows the afferent arteriole entering a glomerular capillary tuft within Bowman’s capsule, with a narrower efferent arteriole exiting. In renal anatomy and physiology, this microvascular structure (arteriole and capillaries) resides in the renal cortex as part of the nephron, the functional unit of the kidney. The afferent arteriole supplies blood and modulates hydrostatic pressure to drive ultrafiltration, thereby determining the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and formation of primary urine.
