Popis: This chapter provides incidence data on spontaneous ophthalmic abnormalities in the most commonly used species in toxicological and pharmacokinetic drug research. This data can be used to better differentiate test article-related ocular findings from background incidental lesions to enhance interpretation of ophthalmic findings, improve speed of drug development, reduce the number of studies that need to be repeated, and thus reduce the overall number of animals used in toxicology research and drug development.
