Research Results to Date:
Is there a connection between RF and certain health problems?
The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition, attempts to
replicate and confirm the few studies that have shown a connection have failed.
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the weight of scientific
evidence does not show an association between exposure to Radio Frequency
(RF) from cell phones and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific
community has supported additional research to address gaps in knowledge.
Some of these studies are described below.
Interphone Study
Interphone is a large international study designed to determine whether cell
phones increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A report published in the
International Journal of Epidemiology (June, 2010) compared cell phone usage
for more than 5,000 people with brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a
similar number of healthy controls.
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused brain cancer. In this
study, most people had no increased risk of brain cancer from using cell phones.
For people with the heaviest use of cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour
