1. A method for performing cold atmospheric plasma therapy to treat cancer in a patient, the method comprising:
sampling a cancerous tumor in the patient;
performing cold atmospheric plasma treatment at a plurality of settings on sampled cancerous tumor cells ex vivo;
storing said settings and results of said ex vivo cold atmospheric plasma treatment in an electronic storage media;
calculating from said stored settings and results with a processor a cell viability reduction rate of each of a plurality of tested samples;
calculating from said calculated cell viability reduction rates with a processor an average cell viability reduction rate;
projecting cold atmospheric plasma dosages to be used in treatment of the cancerous tumor in vivo based upon said calculated average cell viability reduction rate;
surgically removing the tumor from the patient; and
treating the surgical margins of the tumor in the patient with cold atmospheric plasma at the projected dosages.
