Resumen:
Simulations of avascular cancer growth are performed using experimental values of the relevant parameters. This permits a realistic assessment of the influence of these parameters on cancer growth dynamics. In general, an early exponential growth phase is followed by a linear regime as observed in recent experiments, while the thickness of the viable cell layer remains approximately constant. Contrary to some predictions, a transition to latency is not observed.
