A multiscale model for glioma spread including cell-tissue interactions and proliferation by Christian Engwer, Markus Knappitsch, Christina Surulescu

“…Glioma is a broad class of brain and spinal cord tumors arising from glia cells, which are the main brain cells that can develop into neoplasms.They are highly invasive and lead to irregular tumor margins which are not precisely identifiable by medical imaging, thus rendering a precise enough resection very difficult.The understanding of glioma spread patterns is hence essential for both radiological therapy as well as surgical treatment.In this paper we propose a multiscale model for glioma growth including interactions of the cells with the underlying tissuenetwork, along with proliferative effects. …”
