2 In study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there was no increased risk of brain 
tumors associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, however, they 
were more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile phone was used. Because this 
occurred in only a small number of cases, the increased likelihood was too small to be statistically 
significant.
4In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to assure the public that 
there are, or are not, any low incident health problems associated with use of mobile 
phones. FDA continues to work with all parties, including other federal agencies and 
industry, to assure that research is undertaken to provide the necessary answers to the 
outstanding questions about the safety of mobile phones. 
What is known about cases of human cancer that have 
been reported in users of handheld mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed with brain cancer. But 
it is important to understand that this type of cancer also occurs among people who have 
not used mobile phones. In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of 
about 6 new cases per 100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users 
of mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month), about 4800 
cases of brain cancer would be expected each year among those 80 million people, 
whether or not they used their phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether any 
individual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or whether it would have happened 
anyway. A key question is whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greater 
among people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the population. One way to 
answer that question is to compare the usage of mobile phones among people with brain 
cancer with the use of mobile phones among appropriately matched people without brain 
cancer. This is called a case-control study. The current case-control study of brain cancers 
by the National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up research to be sponsored by 
industry, will begin to generate this type of information.
What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of mobile 
phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products 
such as mobile phones before marketing, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. 
However, the agency has authority to take action if mobile phones are shown to emit 
radiation at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the 
manufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace 
or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions at this time, 
FDA has urged the mobile phone industry to take a number of steps to assure public 
safety. The agency has recommended that the industry:
zsupport needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by 
mobile phones;

zdesign mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not 
necessary for device function; and 
zcooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible information on what 
is known about possible effects of mobile phone use on human health.
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies 
that have responsibility for different aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure a 
coordinated effort at the federal level. These agencies are:
zNational Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
zEnvironmental Protection Agency
zFederal Communications Commission
zOccupational Health and Safety Administration
zNational Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.
In the absence of conclusive information about any 
possible risk, what can concerned individuals do?
If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that there is — 
it is probably very small. But if people are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, 
there are simple steps they can take to do so. For example, time is a key factor in how 
much exposure a person receives. Those persons who spend long periods of time on their 
hand-held mobile phones could consider holding lengthy conversations on conventional 
phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter conversations or for situations 
when other types of phones are not available. 
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every day could switch to 
a type of mobile phone that places more distance between their bodies and the source of 
the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, they 
could switch to
za mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehicle, 
za hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a different antenna mounted 
on the outside of the car or built into a separate package, or
za headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.
Again, the scientific data do not
 demonstrate that mobile phones are harmful. But if 
people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy from these products, taking the 
simple precautions outlined above can reduce any possible risk.
