Biotechnology

  • the majority of the radiofrequency energy emitted by a cell phone is absorbed by the hand & head of the user[5]
  • brain glucose metabolism, assessed by PET is increased in the region of the brain closest to the activated cell phone's antenna
  • whole-brain glucose metabolism is not affected by cell phone use
  • significance unknown
