A Stochastic Markov Chain Model to Describe Lung Cancer Growth and Metastasis
A stochastic Markov chain model for metastatic progression is developed for primary lung cancer based on a network construction of metastatic sites with dynamics modeled as an ensemble of random walkers on the network. We calculate a transition matrix, with entries (transition probabilities) interpr...
