Cancer is a major disease currently endangering the entire world population. Morbidity and mortality have increased substantially during recent decades. Radiotherapy is a primary treatment for malignant tumors, however side‑effects and tumor cell resistance to ionizing radiation reduce the efficacy of radiotherapy. In recent years, non‑thermal plasma (NTP) technology been used to treat cancer. In this study, we...
