Bioelectrography

Bioelectrography is a new, relatively unknown and controversial field within physics. It's purpose is to study the electric emissions of objects and living organisms. The energies it focused on isolating and measuring in the field of bioelectrography are the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energy thought to be emanating to and from an individual, plants, liquids, powders, or inanimate objects.

Spiritual relations
As applied to humans, this so-called human energy field is thought by some spiritualists to be the aura or chakras their religions dictate. This attempt at vague scientific observations to justify spiritual beliefs is similar to the more well-known Kirlian photography.

Gas Discharge Visualization technologies
The method used in bioelectrography called Gas Discharge Visualization technique (GDV) is said by proponents of it to be far beyond Kirlian photography. The GDV technique has been accepted as a medical technology by the Russian Ministry of Health. It creates a computer model in real time of the energies measured by GDV, and is thought to be able to perceive 'imbalances' in energy fields which can then be used as a tool for medical diagnosis.

Research
Bioelectrography has been studied by St. Petersburg State Technical University of Informational Technologies, Mechanics and Optics and Konstantin Korotkov. It is related in attempts to justify belief in chi or prana and is controversial and likely disputed by other scientists who would not support the association. He is the head of an organization in Brazil called the International Union of Medical and Applied Bioelectrography.
