No link between cellphone use, brain cancer, major report finds

No link between cellphone use, brain cancer, major report finds

Cellphones have become an integral part of our daily lives, with many of us spending hours glued to our devices. However, concerns about the potential link between cellphone use and brain cancer have long been a topic of debate. A new international review commissioned by the World Health Organization (WHO) brings some reassuring news – there is no evidence to suggest that cellphone use increases the risk of brain cancer.

The review, conducted by 11 experts from 10 countries, analyzed over 5,000 studies published between 1994 and 2022. Their findings, published in the journal Environmental International, debunk the myth that prolonged cellphone use, frequent calls, or exposure to radio frequencies from wireless electronics can lead to an increased risk of brain cancer. Even children exposed to radio or TV transmitters or cellphone towers did not show a higher risk of leukemia or brain cancer.

Lead study author Ken Karipidis emphasized the reassuring nature of the results, noting that despite the skyrocketing use of cellphones, there has been no corresponding rise in brain cancer cases. The initial concerns arose in 2011 when the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified radio wave exposure as a possible carcinogen, but the latest review provides a more comprehensive and conclusive analysis.

One of the key factors contributing to the lack of evidence linking cellphone use to brain cancer is the advancements in technology. Newer generation networks emit substantially lower radio frequency emissions compared to older networks, reducing the potential risks. Additionally, the presence of more cellphone towers actually decreases the amount of radiation emitted by cellphones, as they require less power to establish a signal.

While fears and concerns about the health effects of new technology are common, the review provides solid evidence to dispel the notion that cellphone use is associated with an increased risk of brain cancer. As technology continues to evolve, it is essential to rely on scientific research and evidence-based studies to address any health-related concerns.

For more information on cellphones and cancer risk, you can visit the National Cancer Institute’s website. The study published in Environmental International provides a detailed analysis of the impact of radiofrequency fields on cancer risk in the general population. Copyright © 2024 HealthDay.
