| | Condition | Score | Indication |
| Pancreas | Edema | 0 | Absent | 1 | Focally increased between lobules | 2 | Diffusely increased between lobules | 3 | Acini disrupted | 4 | Acini separated | Inflammatory cell infiltrate | 0 | Absent | 1 | In ducts (around ductal margins) | 2 | In the parenchyma (in <50% of the lobules) | 3 | In the parenchyma (in 50%–75% of the lobules) | 4 | In the parenchyma (in >75% of the lobules) | Acinar necrosis | 0 | Absent | 1 | Periductal necrosis (<5%) | 2 | Focal parenchymal necrosis (5%–20%) | 3 | Diffuse parenchymal necrosis (20%–50%) | 4 | Diffuse parenchymal necrosis (>50%) |
| Lung | Alveolar edema | 0 | Absent | 1 | Focally alveolar septum widened (<20%) | 2 | Diffusely alveolar septum widened (20%–50%) | 3 | Diffusely alveolar septum widened (>50%) with alveolar cell disrupted, separated | Inflammatory infiltration | 0 | Absent | 1 | In interstitial | 2 | In alveoli and interstitial (<50%) | 3 | In alveoli and interstitial (>50%) | Capillary congestion | 0 | Absent | 1 | Focally in alveoli and interstitial (<25%) | 2 | Diffusely in alveoli and interstitial (25%–50%) | 3 | Diffusely in alveoli and interstitial (>50%) |
