Fig 1. Components of the multiphase tumour growth model.

Fig 1

The model comprises a solid phase, the ECM, three fluid phases, host cells, tumour cells and interstitial fluid (IF), and the vasculature which is modelled as an independent porous network. In addition, the phases transport species, namely necrotic tumour cells, oxygen and nanoparticles.
