Albert Abrams (8 December 1863 to 13 January 1924) was an American physician, described by his source as fraudulent, well known during his life for inventing machines such as the Oscilloclast and the Radioclast, which he falsely claimed could diagnose and cure almost any disease. His claims were challenged from the outset. Towards the end of his life, and again shortly after his death, many of his machines and conclusions were demonstrated to be intentionally deceptive or false.
