  • Method and system of using plasma discharge tube for sensitization of cancer cells
    Patent number: 12458809
    Abstract: A method and system of sensitization of cancerous cells in a volume is disclosed. A plasma tube including a pair of electrodes coupled to a power supply is provided. The plasma tube generates a plasma jet between the electrodes. A controller is coupled to a power supply to control a discharge voltage to the electrodes to generate the plasma jet and direct an electro-magnetic field at the volume having cancerous cells and normal cells for a sufficient time to sensitize the cancer cells. A treatment device applies a treatment such as TMZ to the sensitized cancer cells after the cancer cells are sensitized by the electro-magnetic field.
