Modelagem Computacional do Crescimento de Glioma via Diferenças Finitas em Resposta à Radioterapia

Abstract: Resumo. Simulações computacionais tem se tornado uma ferramenta poderosa para a compreensão da evolução do tumor em respostaàs terapias existentes, por ser uma técnica não invasiva, sem a necessidade de expor a vida dos pacientes em riscos. O propósito deste trabalhoé simular o modelo de evolução de células tumorais, em específico glioma, descrito em [4], em respostaà radioterapia para 5 esquemas de tratamentos de dose. Este modelo foi resolvido numericamente pelo método de diferenças finitas e foi feita a aná… Show more

“…The simulations are based on the results described in Rockne et al (2009) and Silva et al (2016), as they allow comparisons to be made to validate the developed code. The following parameters were used as input data: initial radius R 0 = 1.41 cm, constant diffusion coefficient D = 3.9 10 −5 cm 2 /day, proliferation rate g = 0.0453 day −1 , saturation limit for cell concentration u max = 4.2 10 8 cells/cm 3 , average velocity of invasive cells moving away from the core v = 0.01 cm/days, and the radiobiological model parameters α = 0.0305 Gy −1 and α/β = 10 Gy.…”

“…In other words, it is observed that for the input data considered in these simulations, the saturation process in glioma growth starts approximately after 1 year, and this non-linear term can be crucial to adequately estimate the patient's survival time. Although this term was known to us, it had not been considered in our previous studies, since it was not included in the analyzes carried out by Barbosa et al (2019), Jesus et al (2014), Silva et al (2016) and Souza et al (2015).…”
