""Diathermy"" is a seminal medical treatise exploring the therapeutic application of high-frequency electric currents to generate deep heat within body tissues. Written by pioneering physicians Budd C. Corbus and Vincent J. O'conor, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical techniques and physiological effects of diathermy as understood during the early 20th century. The book delves into both medical and surgical applications, with a particular emphasis on its efficacy in treating various inflammatory conditions and its specialized use within the field of urology.

The authors present detailed observations on the management of infections and the use of electrocoagulation, offering a rigorous scientific perspective on what was then a rapidly evolving field of physical medicine. By documenting specific case studies and technical procedures, ""Diathermy"" serves as an essential historical record of the development of electrotherapy and its integration into standard clinical practice. This volume is of significant interest to medical historians, practitioners of physical medicine, and those studying the evolution of surgical technologies. It remains a foundational text for understanding the transition from traditional thermal therapies to modern electronic medical interventions.
