From cell population models to tumor control probability: Including cell cycle effects
15 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Classical expressions for the tumor control probability (TCP) are based on models for the survival fraction of cancer cells after radiation treatment. We focus on the derivation of expressions for TCP from dynamic cell population models. In particular, we derive a TCP formula for a generalized cell population model that includes the cell cycle by considering a compartment of actively proliferating...
