Treatments to combat cancer seek to reach specific regions to ensure maximum efficiency and reduce the possible adverse effects that occur in the treatment. One of these strategies include the treatment with magnetic nanoparticles (NPM), which has presented promising results, however, aspects involved in the trajectory of the nanoparticles are not yet known. The aim of this work is estimating the behavior of NPM through supervised neural networks, for this, artificial neural networks were implemented, such as multilayer perceptron, with optimization algorithms in which the Levenberg Marquardt algorithm stands out, different trajectories of NPM were simulated, including parameters such as time, position in X and Y, the speed that the nanoparticles can reach and physical factors that interact in the distribution were considered, such as the gravitational field, the magnetic field, the Stokes force, the force of pushing and dragging with different values of viscosity in the blood, generating a database with optimized reaction times that allows a more accurate prediction. The architecture obtained with the artificial neural the network that contains the optimization algorithm [5 4 3 2], presented the best performance with a training MSE of 1.763E-07, a validation uRMSE of 0.0049, and trend probabilities of X 0.62 % and 0.576 % in Y.
