Combined Influence of Nutrient Supply Level and Tissue Mechanical Properties on Benign Tumor Growth as Revealed by Mathematical Modeling
A continuous mathematical model of non-invasive avascular tumor growth in tissue is presented. The model considers tissue as a biphasic material, comprised of a solid matrix and interstitial fluid. The convective motion of tissue elements happens due to the gradients of stress, which change as a res...
