Global Impact of Julia Wolleb’s Paper on Diffusion Models for Medical Anomaly Detection
Two years after its publication at the MICCAI 2022 conference in Singapore, Dr Julia Wolleb’s Paper ‹Diffusion Models for Medical Anomaly Detection› has become one of the most influential papers in the field of Medical Image Analysis.
Wolleb’s 2022 contribution introduced diffusion models into medical image analysis. With her paper, she started a growing movement among researchers that resulted in about 20% of all MICCAI 2024 papers using this method. Consequently, her paper was elected among the three most influential papers at the ‹MICCAI 2024 Young Scientist Publication Impact Award›.
Wolleb finished her PhD at Philippe Cattin’s Center for medical Image Analysis & Navigation (CIAN) group and works now as postdoctoral researcher at the Yale Laboratory of Intelligent Global Health & Humanitarian Response Technologies (LiGHT).
