Abstract

The objective of this study was to build a mathematical model able to describe the growth and the real invasion pattern of multicellular tumour spheroids immersed in a collagen matrix. The model may be used in a descriptive (case-specific) as well as in a predictive (population-dependent) way, depending on the type of the input parameters (a shape function obtained from a given experimental case or an aleatory shape function generated by data mining and Monte Carlo tools from the entire dataset, respectively).

This kind of empirical-numerical interaction has wide application potential at the basic research and at the clinical level.
