A Novel Method for Simulating the Extracellular Matrix in Models of Tumour Growth

Figure 4

Simulation results for the proposed model at points in time 𝑡= 50 h, 150 h, 250 h, and 350 h. The initial condition of the nutrients is given by the blood vessel placed at the left and right sides of the domain and are shown in the third row. The extracellular matrix is initialised with a constant value and is illustrated in the second row. The first row is showing the distribution of the cancerous cells. Colouration as given in Figure 3.
