  • Chapter
Methods of External Hyperthermic Heating

Part of the book series: Clinical Thermology ((1289))

Abstract

According to Licht (1965) in his excellent account of the history of the therapeutic use of heat, the earliest medical applications of electric current were developed during the 1830s and 1840s. They included the coagulation of blood in aneurysms and the destruction of fungoid growths. Shortly afterwards Sedillot (1853) reported using electric cautery to destroy tumours. Indeed, the use of cautery became widespread during the following decades, leading to the development of the galvanic knife (Boeckel 1873). These early techniques involved the application of dc currents directly to the tissues.
