Abstract |
Heating by radiofrequency (RF) radiation at high intensities can cause biological changes by whole-body hyperthermia or by altered thermal gradients within the body. However, there have been reports of effects at low intensities of RF radiation without evidence of increased temperaure. Over the years, there has been considerable controversy concerning the potential for RF radiation to cause biological effects in experimental animals in the absence of detectable increases in body or tissue temperature. In many instances, the effects produced by RF radiation have been attributed to direct interactions (athermal or field-specific effects) unrelated to any detectable temperature change in the biological specimen. |
