Iran Inaugurates 1st Wound Clinic Based on Cold Plasma Technology
Addressing the ceremony, Eslami referred to the construction of three plasma-stimulated wound healing clinics in the cities of Varamin, Karaj and Qom, and said 50 such clinics will be founded across Iran next year.
He added that the plasma technologies developed by the AEOI have also been employed for the treatment of different cancers and cardiac diseases in cooperation with medical universities.
Eslami underlined that Iran is currently producing 50 types of radiopharmaceuticals for the diagnosis and treatment of different diseases.
Cold atmospheric plasma therapy is a new and latest approach whose arrival has astonished experts all around the world from the area of biological and pharmaceutical sciences.
Owing to its simple and non-invasive nature, this technique has been admired and encouraged to use different therapeutic regimes like wound healing, ulceration, and cancer.
It is often confused with blood plasma but is identified as the fourth state of matter generated using feed gases like atmospheric air, argon, helium either by applying irradiation or electric field.
The non-thermal property of plasma (cold plasma) is mainly focused on the clinical application as it utilizes lower temperatures (<40 °C) and compatible for biomedical applications.
