Severe jaundice with toxic bilirubin level may lead to brain damage caused by the bilirubin staining of the central nervous system, medically termed as kernicterus. Currently, there are various measurement techniques in monitoring bilirubin level in cases of neonatal jaundice. This paper aimed to provide a comprehensive review of various methods of non-invasive screening and monitoring of neonatal jaundice which includes the light wavelength absorption or reflectance technique, optical technique, electronic equipment and image processing technique. 2019-01-15T02:37:36Z 2019-01-15T02:37:36Z 2018 Article Journal of Engineering Research and Education, vol.10, 2018, pages 1-10 2232-1098 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/57947 en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
