Abstract
In an embodiment, a simulation of the evolution of a tumor in a prostate gland of a subject is based at least on a coupled system of reaction-diffusion equations and a patient-specific geometric model of the prostate gland of the subject. The use of reaction-diffusion equations and a patient-specific geometric model provides a tumor model that predicts the expected progression of prostate cancer in the subject. The tumor model may be used to devise a customized treatment for the subject.
