Simulation of oxygen diffusion in the finite difference model of oxygen transport. Any finite element is assumed to exchange oxygen by diffusion with all neighboring elements, resulting in a net oxygen loss or gain for each element. For a selected tissue element (shaded triangle), simulated exchange processes with its neighboring vessel and tissue elements are indicated by arrows.
