Physics-based tissue simulator to model multicellular systems: A study of liver regeneration and hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence
Fig 9
Qualitative representation of the liver regeneration with HCC recurrence, 30 days after the PH. Hepatocytes are represented by transparent pink cells to have a better view of the blood vessels (red tubes) and the tumor (blue cells) growth. (a) The slowest tumor growth happens when the residual tumor clone was seeded in the center of the liver surface. (b) The fastest tumor growth happens when the residual tumor clone was seeded in the periphery of the liver.
