In Silico Approach Towards Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia in Cancer Treatment: Modeling and Simulation

Authored by Muhammad Suleman, this comprehensive book presents a mathematical modeling and simulation approach as a cost-effective and time-efficient alternative to in-vivo and in-vitro studies in the field of magnetic fluid hyperthermia in cancer treatment.

Simulation of Hyperthermia Processes using COMSOL Multiphysics Software

The book utilizes finite element method-based models to simulate various hyperthermia processes for liver, brain, and breast tumors using COMSOL Multiphysics software. These simulations aim to provide a quantitative analysis of different aspects of hyperthermia treatment, including:

• Constant versus variable heat sources
• The backflow problem
• The enhanced permeation and retention effect
• Flow around Happel’s sphere in cell model structure
• Deformation effect in poroelastic brain tumor
• 3D flow through porous tissue
• Reacting nanofluid flows
• Optimization of parameters

This valuable resource is designed to aid in hyperthermia treatment planning in clinical applications, providing a comprehensive compendium for practitioners, non-medical practicing scientists, and engineers. It serves as a vital reference for both research and medical practice in hyperthermia treatment planning.
