Self-Supervised Vision Transformers for CBCT-Based Detection of Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis

arXiv:2606.08364v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ OA) is a prevalent degenerative condition whose osseous changes are often subtle on cone-beam CT (CBCT), making automated detection challenging. We study how well the DINO family of self-supervised vision transformers -- DINOv1, DINOv2, DINOv2+reg, and RAD-DINO (a radiology-pretrained variant) -- transfers to CBCT, asking how much backbone adaptation is needed and of what kind. We propose a simple slice-based pipeline using Vision Transformer (ViT) backbones: axial CBCT slices are encoded per-slice by
