Description

One of the worst illness nowadays is cancer and in particular brain cancer. We will show a model of the principal brain tumour, glioblastoma, with which we will make some simulations about growth in different situations. This model has as a member the vasculature that will have a special role due to speed diffusion appears tumour. We will check medical outcomes from our model and at last, we will talk about theoretical aspects.
