The Pancreas and the Porpoise with Other Acquatic Life Revelling in the Ocean

This work was inspired by the pancreas which previous to modern technology was known as the hermit the abdomen. The shape of the pancreas (pink) splenic vein(maroon) and the renal vein IVC complex looked like acquatic animals swimming in the sea. An extract from a poem about the pancreas is below.
