Nephrology Renal Physiology
Nephrology is a branch of medicine specializing in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases related to the kidneys. Renal Physiology is a subspecialty of Nephrology and is focused on the normal function and regulation of the kidneys and its systems. Renal Physiology is significant because it helps us to understand how renal organs, systems and processes of the body interact with each other and how diseases of the kidney are processed and treated. Its applications range from diagnosing and managing chronic kidney diseases, acute kidney injury, and hypertension, to understanding and manipulating the body's complex mechanisms of salt and water balance. It also helps in identifying new strategies to improve the quality of care for kidney patients.
