    Abstract: The challenging issues of cancer prevention and cure lie in the need for a more detailed knowledge of the dynamic processes and mechanisms of cellular behaviour and tumour growth dynamics. In this paper we extend a previous 2D parallel implementation of a continuous-discrete model of tumour-induced angiogenesis to the more realistic 3D case. In par... Show More
