Abstract excerpt
The color-shift model (CSM) was introduced by Kopp-Schneider et al. [1] to describe formation and progression of foci of altered hepatocytes (FAH). It incorporates the field-effect hypothesis which postulates that entire colonies of altered hepatocytes simultaneously alter their phenotype. In the original CSM, FAH grow with deterministic growth rate and change their phenotype after an exponentially distributed...
