Through training on unlabeled data, anomaly detection has the potential to impact computer-aided diagnosis by outlining suspicious regions. Previous work on deep-learning-based anomaly detection has primarily focused on the reconstruction error. We argue instead, that pixel-wise anomaly ratings derived from a Variational Autoencoder based score approximation yield a theoretically better grounded and more faithful estimate. In our experiments, Variational Autoencoder gradient-based rating outperforms other approaches on unsupervised pixel-wise tumor detection on the BraTS-2017 dataset with a ROC-AUC of 0.94.
