One-Way Coupled Tumor Response Model for Combined-Hyperthermia-Radiotherapy Treatment with Anisotropic Scattering
2019
Therapies such as combined-hyperthermia-radiotherapy (CHR) take advantage of excellent radiosensitization properties of hyperthermia and treat of tumors with both radiation and heat. To appropriately model a CHR treatment, features like tumor heating (heat transfer), dosimetry (radiation transport), and tumor dynamics (cell population dynamics) must be considered together. Our first paper on modeling such treatments introduced a one-way coupled model that could only account for isotropic scattering of radiation. In the present work, we extend our transport model to incorporate anisotropic scattering.
