research methods. Animal experiments
investigating the effects of RF exposures
characteristic of mobile phones have yielded
conflicting results. A few animal studies, however,
have suggested that low levels of RF could
accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. In one study, mice genetically
altered to be predisposed to developing one type
of cancer developed more than twice as many such
cancers when they were exposed to RF energy
compared to controls. There is much uncertainty
among scientists about whether results obtained
from animal studies apply to the use of mobile
phones. First, it is uncertain how to apply the
results obtained in rats and mice to humans.
Second, many of the studies that showed increased
tumor development used animals that had already
been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and
other studies exposed the animals to the RF
virtually continuously--up to 22 hours per day.
For the past five years in the United States, the
mobile phone industry has supported research
into the safety of mobile phones. This research has
resulted in two findings in particular that merit
additional study:
1.In a hospital-based, case-control study,
researchers looked for an association between
mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of
brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign
tumor of the nerve sheath). No statistically
significant association was found between mobile
phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also
no association between mobile phone use and
gliomas when all types of types of gliomas were
considered together. It should be noted that the
