Safety Guidelines
6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the
possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology
Program and with groups of investigators around
the world to ensure that high priority animal studies
are conducted to address important questions
about the effects of exposure to radiofrequency
energy (RF). The FDA has been a leading participant
in the World Health Organization International
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its
inception in 1996. An influential result of this work
has been the development of a detailed agenda of
research needs that has driven the establishment
of new research programs around the world. The
project has also helped develop a series of public
information documents on EMF issues. The FDA
and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative
22
Research and Development Agreement (CRADA)
to do research on wireless phone safety. The FDA
provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input
from experts in government, industry, and academic
organizations. CTIA funded research is conducted
through contracts with independent investigators. The
initial research will include both laboratory studies
and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessment of additional
research needs in the context of the latest research
developments around the world.
7. How can I find out how much radiofrequency
energy exposure I can get by using my wireless
phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines
that limit radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures.
The FCC/ISEDC established these guidelines in
