Anatomy question..?

What is dialysis? Can you describe how it is used in an artificial kidney.

Answer:
Dialysis is cleansing of the kidneys through filters (peritoneal dialysis uses your own body to filter toxins with dialysis solution and osmosis in the peritoneum; haemodialysis uses a machine to filter toxins from your blood then pumps the 'cleansed' blood back into the body)
our kidney is function as a semi membrane filter to remove impurities in blood.
dialysis is the artificial purification of blood and this can be named as artificial kidney.
there are two kinds of dialysis, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis.but they have the same function which is to remove accumulated substances in the body such as those nitrogen containing compounds like urea, creatinine and others.
Dialysis is a type of renal replacement technique used to artificially replace a lost kidney due to renal failure. It's used for both acute renal failure (a sudden loss of kidney function) and end stage renal failure (a slow progressive loss of renal function over a period of months or years).
Dialysis's purpose is to artificially perform all of the tasks that a health function liver would require to do, such as removing toxic waste, filtering out urea, acid and electrolytes.
