This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Comment: This draft seems to be largely written with a large language model, which is generally not helpful for creating Wikipedia article content. Please rewrite this in your own words. Let me know if you have any questions! (please mention me on reply; thanks!) —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 01:37, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Mathematical Oncology is a specialized branch of oncology.:^[1] in which mathematical methods, including modeling^[2] and simulations,^[3] are applied to the study of cancer^[4] growth, progression, and treatment.^[5] Researchers develop models that describe tumor dynamics, treatment responses, and potential outcomes, supporting the development of more effective treatment strategies.^[6] Simulation of cancer behavior potentially reduces the need for early-phase experimental trials.^[7]^[8]

Mathematical oncology employs both deterministic^[9] and stochastic^[10] models to simulate tumor behavior. These models frequently rely on ordinary differential equations (ODEs)^[11] and partial differential equations (PDEs)^[12] to represent tumor growth, angiogenesis,^[13] metastasis development,^[14] and treatment responses.

Control theory^[15] and optimization^[16] are applied to treatment planning in cancer therapies, particularly in radiotherapy^[17] and chemotherapy.^[18] By optimizing dose schedules and timing, mathematical oncology aims to maximize therapeutic efficacy while minimizing adverse effects.^[19]

Statistical methods^[20] can be important for understanding cancer progression, analyzing treatment outcomes, and identifying significant trends in large data sets.^[21] Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI)^[22] and machine learning^[23] have further impacted the field. AI algorithms^[24] can process larger amounts of patient data and identify patterns that may predict individual responses to treatment, personalizing therapeutic strategies.^[25]

Recent advancements in computational techniques, particularly in AI, have significantly increased progress in mathematical oncology.^[26] AI allows researchers to predict the behavior of individual cells with greater accuracy by integrating diverse types of patient data. AI-driven models can also identify mathematical equations that more precisely reflect tumor growth dynamics, helping researchers uncover relationships between various biological factors more quickly.^[27] ^[28]
