While imaging techniques, such as PET with hypoxia tracers can indicate hypoxic sub-volumes inside a tumour, these modalities are limited by the physics of the system to a resolution in the millimetre regime, whereas tumour oxygen levels can vary over a micron scale. Mathematical models of cellular oxygen distribution are of paramount importance to bridge this scale gap and aid interpretation of clinical image data, and ultimately treatment prescription. This talk discusses some approaches to -and challenges of -the oxygen micro-environment and its significance to treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mathematical Neuro-Oncology Research Lab Presents David R.
