The paper presents a self-supervised learning (SSL) approach for unlocking clinical datasets in 3D medical image computing, addressing three key pitfalls: small pre-training dataset sizes, inadequate architectures, and insufficient evaluation practices. The authors leverage a large-scale dataset of 39k 3D brain MRI volumes and use the nnU-Net framework with a Residual Encoder U-Net architecture. They develop a robust framework for optimizing Masked Auto Encoders (MAEs) for 3D CNNs, achieving state-of-the-art performance on 5 development and 8 testing datasets.

This paper uses special computer learning to help doctors work better with medical images. It makes big improvements by using a lot of data and special computer tools. The results are really good and can be used for many different tasks. The paper’s main idea is to use computers to learn from pictures without needing humans to label them, which can take a long time.
