Plasmas in Medicine

Plasmas in medicine refer to the use of ionized gases—plasmas—that contain energized particles, reactive molecules, and electrons, to treat various health conditions. These medical plasmas can sterilize wounds, promote tissue healing, and target cancer cells without significant damage to surrounding healthy tissue. They are generated at low temperatures, making them safe for use on the body, and are versatile tools in sterilization, cutting-edge cancer therapy, and dental treatments. Overall, plasmas in medicine harness the unique properties of ionized gases to advance healthcare through minimally invasive and precise interventions.
