Digital scoring of welfare traits in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) - a proof of concept study quantifying dorsal fin haemorrhaging via hyperspectral imaging

Sammendrag

Morphological injuries are well-established Operational Welfare Indicators (OWIs) for farmed animals including fish. They are often scored manually by human observers and this process can be laborious and prone to subjectivity and error. In this study we evaluated the use of a hyperspectral imaging system to quantify the presence and severity of external haemorrhaging in Atlantic salmon focusing on dorsal fins as a proof of concept OWI.
