Article Synopsis
- Computational models of tumor growth, especially agent-based models (ABMs), help simulate cancer progression and treatment responses, but often lack realism due to limited domains and missing factors like blood vessels.
- AMBER (Agent-based fraMework for radioBiological Effects in Radiotherapy) overcomes these shortcomings by using a voxelized geometry for realistic simulations, integrating microenvironmental factors and combining ABM techniques with advanced radiation dose calculations from the Monte Carlo method.
- The results from AMBER provide accurate predictions of tumor evolution and radiation outcomes, making it a valuable tool for studying tumor growth and treatment responses with the potential for future enhancements.
