A new study recently published by researchers in Scandinavia indicates that there appears to be no link between mobile phone use and the incidence of brain tumors. As can be expected, another group differs in opinion and so the debate continues.
The study shows no increase in either of two kinds of brain tumors during the informative time period after cellphones were introduced, said Michael J. Thun, vice president emeritus of epidemiology and surveillance research at the American Cancer Society. "What is clear is that the radio frequencies emitted by cellphones are not strong enough to damage DNA," he told TechNewsWorld.
