Kidneys and collecting tubule

[snezka18]

Hello
I might be posting quite regularly as I am doing my revision for physiology

I am just wondering about the collecting tubule, is it the same as collecting duct or is it somehow part of it, or could that relate to distal convoluted tubule?

I would very much appreciate if anyone knows the answer

Thanks

I think I can help you. Even I had the same question.
According to what I know collecting tubule leads to the collecting duct. And the collecting tubule is connected to the Distal convoluted tubule on the other end.
That's how it is.
