Abstract            

The Direct exposure of the high-voltage (10-40 kV) with non-thermal plasma discharges in atmospheric air is utilized to heal living creatures. This process needs a high degree of safety. In this paper, the mice have been exposed to the cold plasma for different intervals of time from 20 sec. to 65 sec. The 1^st order and second order statistical feature were used to detect the changes which occur in the tissues, a comparison between the control and the wound part for all the using mice was achieved. This study shows that the tissues of mice have been changed in their structure when they are exposed to the cold plasma. This effect appeared from the light reflection from the skin. After 45 seconds exposure, the effect of the cold plasma appeared on the tissues. The best time of the skin wounds healing was at 65 seconds.
