Cold plasma cancer therapy /

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has emerged as a possible new modality for cancer treatment. This book provides a comprehensive introduction into fundamentals of the CAP and plasma devices used in plasma medicine. An analysis of the mechanisms of plasma interaction with cancer and normal cells includi...
