Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This prospective cohort analysis from the Airwave Health Monitoring Study evaluated whether occupational personal radio (TETRA) use is associated with cancer risk among 48,457 police officers and staff. Over a median 11 years of follow-up, the study reports no association with all cancers or with head/neck/CNS…

Jan 1, 2025
This population-based case-control study in Montréal (2008–2011) evaluated occupational extremely low-frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) exposure and postmenopausal breast cancer risk using a job-exposure matrix linked to lifetime job histories. Overall, it reports no association between occupational ELF-MF exposure…
