As others will certainly suggest to you, I suggest that you supply an example of what you are asking about.  As far as I can tell there is no function in Mathematica called ImageList.   Do you mean a list of images?  If so then you 
Map the function 
EdgeDetect onto the list of images.  I.e. if the list of images is called 
listOfImages then you would execute 
Map[EdgeDetect[#, r, t] &, listOfImages]
  with suitable chosen values of 
r and 
t.
But perhaps you mean something else.  If so please give a more detailed version of your question.
