Abstract:

Computational modelling of diseases is an emerging field, proven valuable for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of the disease. Cancer is one of the diseases where computational modelling provides enormous advancements, allowing the medical professionals to perform in silico experiments and gain insights prior to any in vivo procedure. In this paper, we review the most recent computational models that have been proposed for cancer. Well known databases used for computational modelling experiments, as well as, the various markup language representations are discussed. In addition, recent state of the art research studies related to tumour growth and angiogenesis modelling are presented.
