Simulation of TACE response. The simulations start by selecting either complete or partial response, by choosing the radius of influence accordingly. 49% remain complete responders after 90 days while 51% showed recurrence. In the lower branch, functional tumour vessels remain for partial responders for which all simulations lead to tumour recurrence after 90 days. Complete response after 90 days is defined by having no tumour cells in the simulation domain, while for recurrence there are tumour cells left. (Red boxes indicate the fraction of total patients).
