FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal 
Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States 
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA 
and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.

 

FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. 
While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones 
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically 
thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base 
stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this 
document.

 

What are the results of the research done already?

 

The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have 
suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the 
effects of radio frequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic of wireless phones 
have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A 
few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate 
the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that 
showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically 
engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to 
develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to 
RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions 
under which people use wireless phones, so we don't know with certainty what the 
results of such studies mean for human health.

 

Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000. 
Between them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of 
wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic 
neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of 
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless 
phones RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about 
long-term exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies was 
around three years.

 

What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones 
poses a health risk?

 

A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually 
using wireless phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime 
animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large 
numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting 
effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly 
applicable to human populations, but ten or more years' follow-up may be needed to 
provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the 
interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors 
develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of 
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure 
during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, 
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

 

What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of 
wireless phone RF?
