Objectives: Boger’s Synoptic Key is a less frequently used repertory. Homoeopaths can use it very effectively if they have the appropriate understanding of Boger’s philosophy and the background concepts. This paper explores the essential background concepts for using Boger’s Synoptic Key through a case series. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was done of the cases successfully treated by the author in his private practice using Boger’s Synoptic Key. Analysis of symptoms and prescribing totality was done to identify the background concepts applied when using Boger’s Synoptic Key. Results: Concepts of tissue affinity, pathological generals, generalisation and consideration of modality and concomitant were identified as applied in case analysis and remedies arrived at through the use of Boger’s Synoptic Key. Conclusion: Boger’s Synoptic Key is a tool well integrated with the concepts of generalisation, tissue affinity, time dimension and pathological generals and their importance in disease evolution. Hence, it needs to be used with consideration of these concepts in case processing.
