Methods for diagnosing zika virus

A non-transitory computer readable medium for storing a computer executable program that causes a processor to execute a process of estimating a probability that a human subject is infected with Zika virus, the process comprising:

• a) determining a correlation between a fundus test image of an eye of the human subject for presence of gross macular pigment mottling with a known set of Zika virus infected fundus images and with a known set of healthy fundus images,
• wherein a high correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of Zika virus infected fundus images indicates that there is a high probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus,
• wherein a low correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of Zika virus infected fundus images indicates that there is a low probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus,
• wherein a high correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of healthy fundus images indicates that there is a low probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus, and
• wherein a low correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of healthy fundus images indicates that there is a high probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus.

A system, comprising:

• a smartphone having a fundus image analyzer app or a website having a fundus image analyzer;
• a first database having a known set of Zika virus infected fundus images;
• and
• a second database having a known set of healthy fundus images,
• wherein the smartphone having the fundus image analyzer app or the website having the fundus image analyzer determines:
• a) a correlation between a fundus test image of an eye of the human subject for presence of gross macular pigment mottling with a known set of Zika virus infected fundus images and with a known set of healthy fundus images,
• wherein a high correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of Zika virus infected fundus images indicates that there is a high probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus,
• wherein a low correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of Zika virus infected fundus images indicates that there is a low probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus,
• wherein a high correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of healthy fundus images indicates that there is a low probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus, and
• wherein a low correlation between the fundus test image and the known set of healthy fundus images indicates that there is a high probability that the human subject is infected with Zika virus.
