This exposure assessment characterized ambient RF-EMF levels during surgical operations in 15 operating rooms in two hospitals in Albacete, Spain. Using an exposimeter recording every 5 seconds, 67 procedures (120 h 45 min) were monitored. The highest recorded mean value was on the 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi band, and all…

Jan 1, 2024
This microenvironmental measurement study assessed temporal trends in outdoor RF-EMF exposure from 2016 to 2023 in four European countries using repeated walking-route measurements with exposimeters. The abstract reports that data did not suggest significant changes in mobile base station (downlink) exposure over…

This study conducted personal full-shift RF-EMF measurements in 333 workers across 46 occupations in Spain and France. Most 1-second measurements of electric and magnetic fields were below the device detection limit (≥1% of 1998 ICNIRP standards), though many workers had at least one detectable reading. A small…

Jan 1, 2017
This preliminary ecological study examined whether RF-EMF exposure in Albacete (Spain) correlated with incidence of lymphomas and brain tumors from January 2012 to May 2015. Personal RF-EMF exposure was measured across 14 frequency bands using an EME Spy 140 exposimeter and compared with tumor incidence by…
