title: Standards in monitoring acute experimental pancreatitis.
abstract: Animal models are helpful and irreplaceable tools in studying etiological factors and the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis. For the comparability of the results, standards in monitoring of acute experimental pancreatitis are necessary. In this article an overview about different models of acute experimental pancreatitis and their severity are given. We also describe obligatory and facultative standard parameters in monitoring of acute experimental pancreatitis.
