Studying the effect of Dielectric Barrier Discharges on the Leukemia Blood Cells Using Digital Image Processing

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 2

Abstract

In this research, Plasma physics and digital image processing technique are utilized. Dielectric Barrier Discharges (DBD) plasma at atmospheric pressure is used for the purpose of studying the plasma effect on the blood tissue, The first order statistical features are used to study the effect of plasma on the blood tissue. Different samples are used to reach the aim of this paper: the patients have leukemia and their leukocytes number is abnormal. By studying the results of statistical features (Energy, Mean, Entropy, Skewness, Kurtosis), it is concluded that the blood cells of the sample shows a good response to the cold plasma. So the plasma can be used as a treatment for the blood tissue for the persons with Leukemia.
