Purpose: Mobile C-arm systems represent the standard imaging devices within the field of spine surgery. In addition to 2D imaging, they allow for 3D scans while preserving unrestricted patient access. For viewing, the acquired volumes are adjusted such that their anatomical standard planes align with the axes of the viewing modality. This difficul...

We introduce unORANIC, an unsupervised approach that uses an adapted loss function to drive the orthogonalization of anatomy and image-characteristic features. The method is versatile for diverse modalities and tasks, as it does not require domain knowledge, paired data samples, or labels. During test time unORANIC is applied to potentially corrupt...

This study introduces unORANIC+, a novel method that integrates unsupervised feature orthogonalization with the ability of a Vision Transformer to capture both local and global relationships for improved robustness and generalizability. The streamlined architecture of unORANIC+ effectively separates anatomical and image-specific attributes, resulti...

The performance of deep neural networks scales with dataset size and label quality, rendering the efficient mitigation of low-quality data annotations crucial for building robust and cost-effective systems. Existing strategies to address label noise exhibit severe limitations due to computational complexity and application dependency. In this work,...

Large and well-annotated datasets are essential for advancing deep learning applications, however often costly or impossible to obtain by a single entity. In many areas, including the medical domain, approaches relying on data sharing have become critical to address those challenges. While effective in increasing dataset size and diversity, data sh...

Despite notable advancements, the integration of deep learning (DL) techniques into impactful clinical applications, particularly in the realm of digital histopathology, has been hindered by challenges associated with achieving robust generalization across diverse imaging domains and characteristics. Traditional mitigation strategies in this field...

The integration of neural-network-based systems into clinical practice is limited by challenges related to domain generalization and robustness. The computer vision community established benchmarks such as ImageNet-C as a fundamental prerequisite to measure progress towards those challenges. Similar datasets are largely absent in the medical imagin...
