Background:

Cancer incidence in Oman is a significant health concern, ranking second highest in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and projected to double between 2008-2020.
Cancer research infrastructure in Oman is nascent, necessitating organized plans and efforts to foster local scientific inquiry.
Advancing cancer diagnosis and treatment is crucial for public health and economic development.

Purpose of the Study:

To review current advancements in machine learning for computer-aided cancer detection and classification (CAD).
To highlight the application of CAD using medical imaging and microarray gene expression profiling for cancer diagnosis.
To explore future directions for cancer research in Oman and its economic potential.

Main Methods:

Review of current research on machine learning applications in cancer diagnosis.
Focus on computer-aided detection and classification (CAD) techniques.
Analysis of medical imaging (mammography, MRI, PET) and microarray gene expression data.

Main Results:

Machine learning techniques show promise in optimizing computer-aided cancer detection and classification.
Medical imaging and gene expression profiling are valuable data sources for CAD systems.
The integration of these technologies can significantly aid radiologists in early cancer diagnosis.

Conclusions:

Oman needs to prioritize and invest in local cancer research to address the growing health challenge.
Developing expertise in CAD using machine learning can enhance diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.
Establishing a cancer research and treatment sector presents a significant economic opportunity for Oman.
