Abstract
The draft document on EM (Electromagnetic) fields reviews and evaluates published information pertaining to the potential carcinogenicity of EM fields. The information includes epidemiology studies, chronic lifetime animal tests, and laboratory studies of biological phenomena related to carcinogenesis. While there are epidemiological studies that indicate an association between EM fields or their surrogates and certain types of cancer, other epidemiological studies do not substantiate this association. There are insufficient data to determine whether or not a cause and effect relationship exists. The document clearly reveals the need for further research.
