A New Mathematical Model for Controlling Tumor Growth Based on Microenvironment Acidity and Oxygen Concentration

Figure 6

(a) A snapshot of simulated tumor growth along with graphical representations of the concentration of oxygen (mMol), glucose (mMol), and pH (mMol/lit). (b) Time evolution of metabolic factors (each step of the simulation holds the time of a complete life-cycle). The background concentrations are subtracted from the concentrate values in the color bar of oxygen and glucose to observe the differences better.
