The electric light affords the mostefficient of all means of combating morbid processes in the joints;it may be applied to the knee, ankle, elbow, wrist, finger, and toother joints. Various special devices admit of the application of thelight to the hip-joint and the cerebral articulations. The instrumentmay be closed so as to superheat the air about the joint; but this isnot always necessary. The highest temperatures are attainable onlywhen there is a free circulation of air, so that the air in contact withthe skin is always dry. By this means it is easily possible to obtaina temperature of 400° F. or more. A temperature, much lower thanthis, however, is not tolerable when the air is saturated with moisture. The after-treatment following the application of the electric lightto a diseased joint must be determined by the pathological conditionspresent and the effect desired. In acute cases it is important to main-tain the highest possible degree of activity of the circulation so tliat
