Zusammenfassung:Systems, methods, and devices are provided for estimating bilirubin levels. In one aspect, a method for estimating the level of bilirubin in a patient includes receiving image data for at least one image including a region of the patient's skin and a color calibration target. Color-balanced image data for the skin region is generated based on a subset of the image data corresponding to the color calibration target and the skin region. The bilirubin level in the patient is estimated based on the color-balanced image data for the skin region.
