Figure 3. The impact of phenotypic switching rates on tumour mass.

Figure 3

(a) The tumour mass at Inline graphic for the 2-dimensional model as a function of the phenotypic switching rates Inline graphic (the rate at which cells become proliferative) and Inline graphic (the rate at which they become motile). (b) The tumour mass at Inline graphic for the 3-dimensional as a function of Inline graphic and Inline graphic. The results in 2 and 3 dimensions are similar, although a larger variability seems to exists in the 3-dimensional case.
