Unlocking the Power of Device-Free Cold Plasma for Tumor Sensitization
Current cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation often struggle to target cancer cells without harming healthy tissue. Many tumors—especially aggressive or drug-resistant types—remain difficult to treat due to limited drug penetration, poor selectivity, and systemic toxicity. There is a pressing need for a method that can sensitize...
