Albert C. Geyser (1865 – March 5 1940) was an American physician and inventor known for creating the Cornell Tube in 1905, named after the college with which he was associated. The Cornell Tube was made of heavy lead glass through which no X-rays were thought to be emitted and was thought to eliminate the danger of burning in medical use of the X-ray. Geyser claimed that the lead filtration would eliminate all unsafe radiation. He was known for promoting X-ray to eliminate "excessive hair" to achieve "faultless skin" that would be white and hairless. His invention made him famous and his wedding to Annie S. Higbie was covered in the front page of The New York Times. Geyser was born in Germany. He was a professor of physiological therapy at Fordham University and instructor in electrotherapy at Cornell University Medical College.
