Determining transducer locations for delivery of tumor treating fields using simulations based on models of healthy subjects

An apparatus for determining transducer locations for delivery of tumor treating fields based on models of healthy subjects, the apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory accessible by the one or more processors, the memory storing instructions that when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
• receive a medical image of a subject having an abnormality;
• receive a selection of a healthy model from a plurality of healthy models, the healthy model being representative of the subject, the selection based on the medical image of the subject;
• receive a selection of locations on the healthy model to place transducers to treat the tumor of the subject without identifying a location of the abnormality in the healthy model;
• receive an indication of a region of interest in the healthy model;
• and
• calculate a dosage of tumor treating fields treatment in the region of interest of the healthy model without modifying the healthy model to include abnormal tissue associated with the abnormality.

A non-transitory processor readable medium containing a set of instructions thereon for determining transducer locations for delivery of tumor treating fields based on models of healthy subjects, wherein when executed by a processor, the instructions cause the processor to:

• receive a medical image of a subject having an abnormality;
• receive a selection of a healthy model from a plurality of healthy models, the healthy model being representative of the subject, the selection based on the medical image of the subject;
• receive a selection of locations on the healthy model to place transducers to treat the tumor of the subject without identifying a location of the abnormality in the healthy model;
• receive an indication of a region of interest in the healthy model;
• and
• calculate a dosage of tumor treating fields treatment in the region of interest of the healthy model without modifying the healthy model to include abnormal tissue associated with the abnormality.
