Renal archaeology : The evolution of the intra-renal veins.

A complete film which explains the architecture of the intra-renal veins in various imaginative visual ways. Firstly, there is generic archaeological footage (Greece) and coastal shots with atmospheric Greek music on the audio. F. T. Graves narrates the film describing his research interest in the kidney. The architecture of the blood supply to the kidney is shown via three-dimensional models and medical illustrations. Archaeology (the Minoan palaces in Crete) provided the inspiration for the solution in his exploration of the kidney. Finally a barge floats languidly into the distance on a water course.
