“…It has been confirmed that GISs can successfully be used for topographic analyses of animal diseases, to create maps of lesion type and distribution on the animal's body. GISs have previously been used to study spinal disc herniation in dogs (Daraban et al, 2014), nodular skin lesions and their malignancy in dogs (Pascotto, Tomè, Comazzi, Marco, & Cornegliani, 2014), gastric lesions in pigs (Pascotto, Capraro, Tomè, & Spanghero, 2016) and the corporal distribution of Ctenocephalides felis felis and C. canis fleas in dogs (Rinaldi et al, 2007).…”

A retrospective study was conducted using 250 clinical records of brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) with saprolegniosis by Saprolegnia parasitica, which had been collected from 8 rivers and 1 fish farm in the province of León (Spain). A geographic information system (GIS) was used to obtain skin lesion distribution patterns in males and females. Lesions in wild brown trout affected 15.31 ± 13.33% of the body surface, with a mean of 12.76 ± 6.56 lesions per fish. In addition, 51.23% of wild trout presented lesions with necrosis of the skin or fins. The pattern obtained when not distinguishing between sexes indicated that saprolegniosis lesions are mainly located above the lateral line and most frequently affect the dorsal cephalic region, the adipose fin, the peduncle and the caudal fin. However, differences were observed between males and females. Farmed trout presented a lower percentage of affected body surface (2.06 ± 4.36) and a lower number of lesions with and without necrosis because they received preventive treatment for saprolegniosis.

“…Geographic information system (GIS) in the format of computer software tools constitutes a powerful approach to store, analyse and manage epidemiological data. Although GIS is mainly applied for the investigation of the localisation and distribution of cases of various diseases in the environment, it can also be used for the positioning of pathology of organs in the body, as described by Daraban et al (2014), Pascotto et al (2014), and Imanieh et al (2015). The aim of present investigation was to determine the topographic distribution of gastritis lesions in pigs through the application of open source GIS software.…”

The aim of this paper was to determine the topographic distribution of gastritis lesions in pigs through an open source geographic information system (GIS) software analysis. The stomachs of 146 Italian heavy pigs were collected at slaughter and subjected to macroscopic pathological examination of the internal mucosa. A total of 623 lesions were either classified as hyperplastic or follicular (97%) with the remaining minority of lesions categorised as atrophic and simple. The hyperplastic gastritis lesions had an average surface of 77.8 cm2 and were mainly located in an oval shaped area of the fundus region of the stomach near the Curvatura ventriculi major. The follicular gastritis lesions had generally a smaller surface (40.3 cm2) and were concentrated in two distinct small areas of the pyloric region. The GIS analysis provided the opportunity to produce useful maps showing the distribution and characteristics of gastritis in pigs.
