Clin Occup Environ Med. 2004 Nov;4(4):731-40, vi. doi: 10.1016/j.coem.2004.03.012.

Abstract

The liver and kidneys are tissues with a rich blood supply. Thus, with significant exposures, these tissues may be at risk for anatomic or pathophysiologic alterations. It is important to understand the gross, microscopic, and functional anatomy of these important organs to analyze potential adverse effects of solvents.
