Abstract
Provided herein are in silico methods of modeling hepatic inflammation, fibrosis/cirrhosis, and cancer. The models are computer-implemented agent-based models and are useful in determining patient prognoses in hepatic conditions, including viral infections, damage, inflammation, and cancer. The modeling system also is useful in modeling the effects of active agents on normal hepatic tissue or hepatic tissue perturbed by inflammation, infection, damage, fibrosis/cirrhosis, and cancer.
