We study a simplified stochastic model for the vascularization of a growing tumor, incorporating the formation of new blood vessels at the tumor periphery as well as their regression in the tumor center. The resulting morphology of the tumor vasculature differs drastically from the original one. We demonstrate that the probabilistic vessel collapse has to be correlated with the blood shear force in order to yield percolating network structures. The resulting tumor vasculature displays fractal properties. Fractal dimension, microvascular density (MVD), blood flow and shear force has been computed for a wide range of parameters.
We propose a strange-attractor model of tumor growth and metastasis. It is a 4-dimensional spatio-temporal cancer model with strong nonlinear couplings. Even the same type of tumor is different in every patient both in size and appearance, as well as
A theoretical model based on the molecular interactions between a growing tumor and a dynamically evolving blood vessel network describes the transformation of the regular vasculature in normal tissues into a highly inhomogeneous tumor specific capil
Prediction and control of cancer invasion is a vital problem in medical science. This paper proposes a modern geometric Ricci-flow and entropy based model for control of avascular multicellular tumor spheroid growth and decay. As a tumor growth/decay
Heterogeneity is a hallmark of all cancers. Tumor heterogeneity is found at different levels -- interpatient, intrapatient, and intratumor heterogeneity. All of them pose challenges for clinical treatments. The latter two scenarios can also increase
The novelty of new human coronavirus COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 and the lack of effective drugs and vaccines gave rise to a wide variety of strategies employed to fight this worldwide pandemic. Many of these strategies rely on the repositioning of existing
