About

Many cases of retinoblastoma (eye tumor) are obvious in baby pictures, but often only in retrospect. When photographed with a flash, babies with retinoblastomas show whiteness in their pupils instead of red-eye. WhiteEye allows parents to gather and examine photos of their children to pre-screen them for retinoblastoma. Our metrics are based on the research found in: Abdolvahabi A, Taylor BW, Holden RL, Shaw EV, Kentsis A, et al. (2013) Colorimetric and Longitudinal Analysis of Leukocoria in Recreational Photographs of Children with Retinoblastoma. PLoS ONE 8(10): e76677. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0076677
