Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) 
Signals
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published 
information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF) 
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication 
includes the following information:
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will 
cause cancer or other serious h ealth hazards. The weight of 
scientific evidence has not linked cell phones with any health 
problems.
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy. 
Over the past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds 
of studies looking at the biological effects of the radio 
frequency energy emitted by cell phones. While some 
researchers have reported biological changes associated  with RF energy, these studies have failed to be replicated. 
The majority of studies published have failed to show an 
association between exposure to radio frequency from a cell 
phone and health problems.
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the 
microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at 
substantially reduced time inte
rvals when in the stand-by 
mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects 
(by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not 
produce heating effects causes no known adverse health 
effects.
The biological effects of radi o frequency energy should not 
be confused with the effects from other types of 
electromagnetic energy.
Very high levels of electromag netic energy, such as is found 
in X-rays and gamma rays, can  ionize biological tissues. 
Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away 
from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can 
permanently damage biological  tissues including DNA, the 
genetic material. 
						

							174
The energy levels associated with radio frequency energy, 
including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great 
enough to cause ionization of atoms and molecules. 
Therefore, RF energy is a type
 of non-ionizing radiation. 
Other types of non-ionizing radiation include visible light, 
infrared radiation (heat), and  other forms of electromagnetic 
radiation with relatively low frequencies.
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can 
increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two 
areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly 
vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little 
blood flow in them to carry away excess heat.
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection 
between RF and cer tain 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 co nnection have failed.
The scientific community at larg e 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. St ill 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 in crease 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 
per day, every day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a 
slight increase in brain cancer. However, the authors 
determined that biases and errors prevented any conclusions 
being drawn from this data. Additional information about 
Interphone can be found at 
http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2010/pdfs/pr200_E.pdf.
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did 
not answer all questions about  cell phone safety. Additional 
research is being conducted around the world, and the FDA 
continues to monitor developments in this field.

Inter national Cohort Study on Mobile Phone Users 
(COSMOS)
The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health 
monitoring of a large group of people to determine if there 
are any health issues linked to long-term exposure to radio 
frequency energy from cell phone use. The COSMOS study 
will follow approximately 300,000 adult cell phone users in 
Europe for 20 to 30 years. Additional information about the 
COSMOS study can be found at
 http://www.ukcosmos.org/index.html.
Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio 
Frequency Fields in Childhood and Adolescence 
(MOBI-KIDS)
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the 
relationship between exposure to radio frequency energy 
from communication technologies including cell phones and 
brain cancer in young people. This is an international 
multi-center study involving 14 European and non-European 
countries. Additional information about MOBI-KIDS can be 
found at

view.php?ID=39.
Sur veillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) 
Program of the National Cancer Institute
The National Cancer Institute  (NCI) actively follows cancer 
statistics in the United States to detect any change in rates of 
new cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play a role in risk 
for brain cancer, rates should go up, because heavy cell 
phone use has been common for  quite some time in the U.S. 
Between 1987 and 2005, the overal l age-adjusted incidence 
of brain cancer did not increase . Additional information about 
SEER can be found at 
 
http://seer.cancer.gov/.
Cell Phone Industr y Actions
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA 
regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone industry 
to take a number of steps, including the following:
Support-needed research on possible biological effects of RF 
for the type of signal emitted by cell phones;
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to 
the user; and
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current 
information on cell phone use and human health concerns.
