Mathematical modelling of the dynamics of image-informed tumor habitats in a murine model of glioma
Abstract
Tumors exhibit high molecular, phenotypic, and physiological heterogeneity. In this effort, we employ quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to capture this heterogeneity through imaging-based subregions or “habitats” in a m...

PhysiCOOL: A generalized framework for model Calibration and Optimization Of modeLing projects
Abstract
In silico models of biological systems are usually very complex and rely on a large number of parameters describing physical and biological properties that require validation. As such, parameter space exploration is an essential compone...

The ISMRM Open Science Initiative for Perfusion Imaging (OSIPI): Results from the OSIPI–Dynamic Contrast‐Enhanced challenge
Abstract
Ktrans$$ {K}^{\mathrm{trans}} $$ has often been proposed as a quantitative imaging biomarker for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response assessment for various tumors. None of the many software tools for Ktrans$$ {K}^{\mathrm{trans...

Patient-specific, mechanistic models of tumor growth incorporating artificial intelligence and big data
Abstract
Despite the remarkable advances in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and management that have occurred over the past decade, malignant tumors remain a major public health problem. Further progress in combating cancer may be enabled by person...

Comparing mechanism-based and machine learning models for predicting the effects of glucose accessibility on tumor cell proliferation
Abstract
Glucose plays a central role in tumor metabolism and development and is a target for novel therapeutics. To characterize the response of cancer cells to blockade of glucose uptake, we collected time-resolved microscopy data to track the...
