Physics-based tissue simulator to model multicellular systems: A study of liver regeneration and hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence

Fig 7

Blood vessels regeneration.

(a) Schematic representation of blood vessels regeneration after a 70% PH. Left panels show an upper view while right panels show a side view. Blood vessels regenerate by keeping the hepatic lobules structure. (b) Quantification of the blood vessels regeneration by counting the Dirichlet nodes added during the regeneration process. It shows a significant increase during the first 3 days until it finally reaches a plateau. Shaded region represent the standard deviation of 40 simulations.
