Infos

This comprehensive text is suitable for researchers and graduate
students of a 'hot' new topic in medical physics.

Written by the world's leading experts, this book
aims to present recent developments in plasma medicine, both
technological and scientific, reviewed in a fashion accessible to
the highly interdisciplinary audience consisting of doctors,
physicists, biologists, chemists and other scientists, university
students and professors, engineers and medical practitioners.

The book focuses on major topics and covers the physics required
to develop novel plasma discharges relevant for medical
applications, the medicine to apply the technology not only
in-vitro but also in-vivo testing and the biology to understand
complicated bio-chemical processes involved in plasma interaction
with living tissues.
