Study overviews

Epidemiological studies of low and radio frequency exposure on children's health comprise the following studies:

Studies dealing with children or adolescents up to 18 years old exposed in the residential or personal area. The exposure is due to TV and broadcasting antennas or mobile phones in the radio frequency range whereas in the low frequency range power lines are the most common exposure source.
Studies in which an occupational, residential, or personal exposure of the parents before or during the development of the fetus occured.
