    The word BSE is short but it stands for a disease with a long name, bovine spongiform encephalopathy. "Bovine" means that the disease affects cows, "spongiform" refers to the way the brain from a sick cow looks spongy under a microscope, and "encephalopathy" indicates that it is a disease of the brain. BSE is commonly called "mad cow disease."
