Mathematical modelling of comedo ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast.
The growth of a tumour in a cylindrical duct with compliant walls is examined in order to model the early stages of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast, the earliest known stage of breast cancer. A nutrient-limited growth model is formulated, in which cell movement is described by a Stokes...
