N2  - Occupational or residential exposures to radio frequency radiation, including microwaves, have been alleged to result in health problems, including leukemia, other cancers, and reproductive mishaps. This review covers the recent literature (from 1995 to 1998) dealing with possible health effects, including original studies, reviews, commentaries, and editorials. A number of these articles have presented misconceptions, errors in citation, and inaccuracies regarding the alleged effects. Epidemiological reviews and studies dealing with exposures to radio frequency radiation from television transmitters, cellular telephones and towers, magnetic resonance imaging, phased array radar systems, and other occupational exposures are analyzed. On the basis of studies reported in the past several years, one can conclude that the evidence for any proven health effects of low-level microwave exposure is minimal to non-existent.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
