Endocrine Disorders
Updates on Diagnosis and Testing
Join us for a discussion about equine endocrine disorders such as PPID, insulin dysregulation, and thyroid disease. We’ll focus is on insulin dysregulation, which is a common endocrine disorder in horses and a risk factor for laminitis. We’ll also discuss equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) (a collection of risk factors for laminitis caused by endocrine disease) and the latest guidelines from the Equine Endocrinology Group. Finally, we’ll review diagnostic testing for PPID and thyroid disease. Proper management of these disorders is crucial to prevent the risk of laminitis and other complications.
Presented by Dr. Amy Polks, DVM, DACVIM
