Investigation and optimization of tumor-treating fields technique for breast cancer treatment: a simulation study.
Tumor-treating fields (TTFields) use alternating electric fields (1-3 V/cm, 100-300 kHz) to disrupt tumor cell division. This study explored TTFields for breast cancer using a COMSOL-based model of a breast with irregular tumors in various glandular positions and volumes. Multiple electrode configurations were analyzed. Skin temperature over time was evaluated using the bioheat equation. Results showed that applying ±20 V with a 12-electrode setup delivered effective tumor targeting while maintaining safe skin temperatures. This finite-element analysis highlights TTFields' potential for breast cancer therapy and provides a foundation for optimizing treatment parameters in future clinical applications.
期刊介绍:
The primary aims of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering are to provide a means of communicating the advances being made in the areas of biomechanics and biomedical engineering and to stimulate interest in the continually emerging computer based technologies which are being applied in these multidisciplinary subjects. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering will also provide a focus for the importance of integrating the disciplines of engineering with medical technology and clinical expertise. Such integration will have a major impact on health care in the future.
