Rosenthal, Moritz (1833-1889)

Moritz Rosenthal was born in Nagyvarad (Grosswardien), Hungary (now Oradea, in Romania). He studied medicine at the University of Vienna, where in 1863 he became a lecturer. Dr. M. Rosenthal, together with Dr. Benedikt, were the founders of electrotherapy (1865) for treating nerve and muscle diseases. From 1875 he was assistant professor. His Klinik der Nervenkrankheiten, published in the same year, has been translated into English, French, Italian an Russian, and was a standard work of the time. Professor Rosenthal published over seventy treatises in medical journals. Other books he wrote dealt with brain tumors, cervical paraplegia, the cortical centers of the brain, post-luetic myelitis and tabes, the affection of the stomach, stammering and apparent death. Moritz Rosenthal died in Vienna in 1889.
