Electric cure for cancer by Doyen method at Johns Hopkins
French surgeon Dr. B Doyen’s electrical cancer treatment was used at Johns Hopkins Hospital by Dr. G Hauer Everhardt to remove a large facial cancer from John Lookingbi of Carroll County. The procedure involved softening tissue with heated air and applying electricity, known as fulguration, to kill cancer cells. A Doyen vaccine from Paris used micrococcus neoformans and will be followed by antitoxin for six months, with expectations of no recurrence after about three years based on global experience.
