personalized predictions of glioblastoma infiltration: mathematical models, physics-informed neural networks and multimodal scans

abstract:

predicting the infiltration of glioblastoma (gbm) from medical mri scans is crucial for understanding tumor growth dynamics and designing personalized radiotherapy treatment plans.mathematical models of gbm growth can complement the data in the prediction of spatial distributions of tumor cells. however, this requires estimating patient-specific parameters of the model from clinical data, which is a challenging inverse problem due to limited temporal data and the limited time between imaging and diagnosis. this work proposes a method that uses physics-informed neural networks (pinns) to estimate patient-specific parameters of a reaction-diffusion pde model of gbm growth from a single 3d structural mri snapshot. pinns embed both the data and the pde into a loss function, thus integrating theory and data. key innovations include the identification and estimation of characteristic non-dimensional parameters, a pre-training step that utilizes the non-dimensional parameters and a fine-tuning step to determine the patient specific parameters. additionally, the diffuse domain method is employed to handle the complex brain geometry within the pinn framework. our method is validated both on synthetic and patient datasets, and shows promise for real-time parametric inference in the clinical setting for personalized gbm treatment.
