A three phase model to investigate the effects of dead material on the growth of avascular tumours
- Abstract:
-
In vivo tumours are highly heterogeneous entities which often comprise intratumoural regions of hypoxia and widespread necrosis. In this paper, we develop a new three phase model of nutrient-limited, avascular tumour growth to investigate how dead material within the tumour may influence the tumour’s growth dynamics. We model the tumour as a mixture of tumour cells, dead cellular material and extracellular fluid. The model equations are derived using mass and momentum balances for each phase ...
