Buckley: Simulated Data from Buckley (2002)

Description

In Buckley (2002) tissue residue curves for a Meningioma and a Breast Cancer were simulated using the MMID4 model. Note, the model is described in detail by Bassingthwaighte, J.B. et al. (1984) and Kroll, K et al. (1996). This model accounts for flow dispersion and heterogeneity, and includes capillaries modeled as axially distributed blood-tissue exchange units. A plasma concentration-time curve, AKA arterial input function, was simulated as an input to the model using measurements made by Fritz-Hansen et al. (1996).
