Supplementary Figure 1. Bowel motion shown on cine images of rat abdomen. A. Two minutes free breathing 2D TrueFISP scanning showed the extremely active peristaltic motion in small bowel and cecum. B. C. Respiration triggered HASTE images continuously scanned over 10 minutes. Common bile duct was pulled by the movement of duodenum in a healthy animal (B). In case of acute pancreatitis (C), randomized motion exists around the entire edematous pancreas. Note the dramatic motion of cecum, which is inferior to the pancreatic body and tail. C: colon, CBD, common bile duct, H: heart, L: liver, P: pancreas, Si: small intestine, St: stomach, triangle arrow head: duodenum.
TrueFISP: frame rate 0.57 second, TE/TR = 1.62/566 ms, FA = 60o, BW = 789 Hz/pixel, 0.67*0.67 mm.
HASTE: frame rate around 6 seconds, TE/TR = 354/1860 ms, FA = 180o, BW = 349 Hz/pixel, 0.45*0.45 mm.
