X-ray images of laying hens

The dataset contains x-ray images of birds (laying hens) that were generated during the research project funded by Svenska Forskningsrådet Formas (2019-02116). The project aimed to develop a digital tool to assess bones of laying hens using x-ray imaging. The dataset contains a total of 1,116 images, of 168 birds, each bird was x-rayed several times: 3-5 times during their life, 1 time post-mortem, and 1 time for its dissected tibia and keel bones. All images are in JPEG format. All images are named with informative codes indicating bird id, date and time of x-raying, whether the image for live or postmortem x-raying. More details are provided in the attached README file.
