摘要：Anomaly detection from medical images is an important task for clinical screening and diagnosis.In generala large dataset ofnormal images is available while only few abnormal images can be collected in clinical practice Bymimicking the diagnosis process ofradiologists,we attempt to tackle this problem by learning a tractable distribution ofnormal images and identify anomalies by differentiating the original image and the reconstructed normal image.More specificallywe propose a normalizingflow based autoencoder for an efficient and tractable representation of normal medical images The anomaly score consists ofthe likelihood originated from the normalizing flow and the reconstruction error of the autoencoderwhich allows to identify the abnormality and provide an interpretability at both image and pixel levels.Experimental evaluation on different medical l images datasets showed that the proposed model outperformed the other approaches by a large margin, which validated the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
