"Robotic Cold Atmospheric Plasma Surgical System And Method" in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20240156533).

A patent application for a robotic cold atmospheric plasma surgical system and method has been filed by inventors Canady, Jerome; Jun, Changhan; and Zhuang, Taisen. The invention aims to provide a system and method for controlling a dosage of cold plasma generated multi-species delivered to a patient during surgery. The system utilizes a robotic arm to move a cold atmospheric plasma probe over a defined tissue area, while maintaining a constant distance from the tissue and applying cold atmospheric plasma treatment. The invention also includes a passive positioning system, a master control module, and a cold atmospheric plasma generator. [Extracted from the article]
