Abstract
A computer-implemented method for selecting at least one transducer location for delivering TTFields to a subject, the method including: obtaining a three-dimensional model of the subject, the model including voxels; computing an initial vector φ' for each of a plurality of transducer locations, wherein each initial vector φ′ represents an initial estimate of electrical potentials for the model for each respective transducer location; computing a matrix A and a vector b, wherein the matrix A is based on the model, wherein the vector b is based on boundary conditions for each respective transducer location; computing a vector φ using the matrix A, the vector b, and the initial vector φ′ for each transducer location, wherein Aφ=b, wherein each vector φ represents electrical potentials for the model for each respective transducer location; and selecting transducer location(s) for delivering tumor treating fields to the subject based on the vectors φ.
