Özet

The use of plasma technology is a new field of study that combines life sciences and clinical medicine.
The medical
application of the physical plaz
m
a can be basically examined in two parts.
These
applications involve the indirect use of
plasma
-
based or plasma
-
assisted techniques and the direct interaction of the plasma with living tissue.
Plasma medicine
basically explores the use of plasma technology in the treatment of living cells, tissues and o
rgans.
Efforts to use plasma
technology for medical purposes, either directly or in the hum
an body, have been intensified.
In the fields of cancer therapy,
endoscopy, dentistry and dermatology, plasma technology is used for medical purposes.
Although the
area of plasma
medicine is very new and in the developmental stage, it has a great economic potential.
Medical
authorities need a
based
on the potential prediction of the plasma source to determine whether the plasma source is suitable for medical applicat
ions
or biological experiments.
The main purpose of this study is to give information about the applications of plasmatic
medicine, the determination of the suitability of plasma source for medical applications and the possible interaction
mechanisms betwee
n plasma and living cells.
In addition, the basic principles of plasma technology and its theoretical
background are given in detail, and the potential and feasibility of using this technology in medicine has been discussed
and summarized.
