Abstract

The use of plasma technology is a new field of study that combines life sciences and clinical medicine. The medical application of the physical plazma 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 organs. Efforts to use plasma technology for medical purposes, either directly or in the human 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 applications 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 between 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.
