7 Jun 2005 | Subject: | Biological Physics; Medical Physics | physics.bio-ph physics.med-ph | Abstract: | We studied the effect of additive and multiplicative noises on the growth of a tumor based on a logistic growth model. The steady-state probability distribution and the average population of the tumor cells were given to explain the important roles of correlated noises in the tumor growth. We found that multiplicative noise induces a phase transition of the tumor growth from an uni-stable state to a bi-stable state; the relationship between the intensity of multiplicative noise and the population of the tumor cells showed a stochastic resonance-like characteristic. It was also confirmed that additive noise weakened rather than extinguish the tumor growth. Homologous noises, however, promote the growth of a tumor. We also discussed about the relationship between the tumor treatment and the model. | Source: | arXiv, physics/0506058 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
