Whereas high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF
that does not produce heating effects causes no
known adverse health effects. Many studies of low
level RF exposures have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested that some
biological effects may occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research. In
some cases, other researchers have had difficulty
in reproducing those studies, or in determining the
reasons for inconsistent results.
