Nephrons, the essential components of renal function, make up the renal pyramid. The renal pyramids form the renal medulla, which make up the renal parenchyma.

The sizes of these instruments are measured on the French (Fr) scale, the diameter in millimeters (mm) multiplied by three. The smallest ureteral catheter is 1 mm in diameter, or 3 Fr; the largest is 14 Fr.
