About this title

Synopsis

Electro-Therapeutical Practice: A Ready Reference Guide For Physicians In The Use Of Electricity And The X-Rays by Charles S. Neiswanger is a comprehensive early 20th-century manual for physicians detailing the therapeutic use of electricity and X-ray technology. The work surveys foundational physics and practical methods, beginning with the Properties of Electricity, Volts-Amperes-Ohms, and Battery Formation, and moves through galvanism, electrolysis, cataphoresis, and metallic cataphoresis. It explains Faradism, Magnetism, the Static Machine, and the Roentgen X-Rays, including tube construction, vacuum regulation, and radiographic technique. The book emphasizes safe, evidence-based application rather than sensational claims, stressing the need to understand physiology and physics to avoid harm. It covers deep Roentgen therapy for fibroids, uterine and prostatic diseases, intrauterine drug delivery, dysmenorrhea, urethral strictures, hemorrhoids, and dermatologic applications, including nevi and chloasma. A substantial portion is devoted to high-frequency currents, dia-thermy, induction currents, ozone generation, and light therapy. Practical chapters on radiography, dental radiography, anesthesia considerations, and clinical case reports provide ready-to-use procedures and cautionary notes for clinicians. The tone is practical, instructive, and historically valuable for early therapeutic electricity.
