ABSTRACT:
A method of predicting in a subject horse the presence or absence of a predisposition for osteochondritis dissecans, including performing a glucose tolerance test on the subject horse, and comparing the glucose tolerance test results of the subject horse and the glucose tolerance test results of an osteochondritis dissecans-free horse population.
