  		Fig. 2A —Typical appearance of perfusion color map and curves obtained for 32-year-old woman with acute biliary pancreatitis. Conventional CT scan image shows input regions of interest (ROIs) displayed on aorta (T1), pancreatic head (T2), body (T3), and tail (T4). There is slight swelling of pancreatic body and tail but no obvious necrotic area.
