Area of Science:

  • Biophysics
  • Computational Biology
  • Medical Physics

Context:

  • Tumor-treating fields (TTFields) represent a novel therapeutic approach for solid malignancies.
  • Accurate simulation of electric field distribution is crucial for optimizing TTFields efficacy.
  • Existing simulation model construction methods are often costly and difficult to implement.

Purpose:

  • To develop a highly accurate and easily implementable finite element simulation model for TTFields using open-source software.
  • To analyze the influence of various parameters, including tissue electrical properties and electrode configurations, on electric field distribution within tumors.

Summary:

  • A finite element simulation model for TTFields was constructed with 1 mm³ accuracy using open-source tools.
  • The model was used to investigate the impact of scalp/skull conductivity, tumor conductivity, and electrode arrangements on internal electric field distribution.
  • Maximum variations in electric field strength were observed due to changes in tumor conductivity (157.8%) and electrode configurations (74.2%).

Impact:

  • The developed modeling method is validated for feasibility and effectiveness.
  • This accessible simulation approach can serve as a valuable reference for future TTFields research and clinical applications.
  • Facilitates optimization of TTFields treatment planning and personalized therapy.
