Medullary ray (anatomy)
text:
In anatomy, a medullary ray is the middle part of a cortical lobule. Each consists of a group of nephrons in the renal cortex. Their name is potentially misleading, as "medullary" refers to their destination, not their location. They travel perpendicular to the capsule, and extend from the cortex to the medulla. They may be visualised during urography.
