Movements of the Ureter

Synopsis
The left ureter, left kidney and bladder in a rabbit are exposed by laparotomy; the urine is darkened by injecting a dye (indigo carmine) into an ear vein, so that its passage along the ureter can be readily observed.
Then the movements of the ureter are recorded at three different camera speeds - normal, 3 times normal and slowed down 2.5 times. High speed photography shows the shape of the urine moiety.
