This book will provide a comprehensive introduction into fundamentals of the nonthermal plasmas and plasma devices used in plasma medicine. Several chapters will be devoted to analysis of the mechanisms of plasma interaction with cancer and normal cells including description of the mechanism of plasma selectivity. It will also present some recent advances in the field, the primary challenges and future directions. This book is meant for a broad audience, from students to engineers and scientists, who are interested in the emerging field of plasma medical application.
Plasma cancer therapy is fast developing field, and the new edition will be significantly expanded (from 98 pages to ~200 pages) and updated throughout, with the addition of the following new chapters:
* Non-thermal (cold) atmospheric plasma devices
* Diagnostics and modeling of cold atmospheric plasmas
* Mechanisms of cold plasma interaction with cancer cells
* Physics and technology of the adaptive plasma therapy
Key Features:
