Most veterinarians have heard about equine degenerative myeloencephalopathy (EDM). However, Emilie Setlakwe, DVM, DACVIM, MS, clues her fellow practitioners into what might be a previously unrecognized form of EDM in this episode.

"The type of EDM I talk about is different," said Setlakwe. "For the last 10 years, there has been a resurgence of this disease. But it is different from the one in young horses with low vitamin E levels. These horses have cerebral signs."
