Fig. 2From: The initial engraftment of tumor cells is critical for the future growth pattern: a mathematical study based on simulations and animal experimentsEstimated growth curves. Estimated growth curves based on a single synthetic Gompertz growth sample for all selected growth functions. The initial tumor volume V0 was fixed to 1 mm3 during curve fitting. Just from visual examination, the exponential growth function is not suited to describing the sample tumor data. Fit metrics can be used to compare the suitability of the other functionsBack to article page
