Consultation on the scientific review for the upcoming WHO Environmental Health Criteria
The consultation is open until 15 November 2014
The World Health Organization is undertaking a health risk assessment of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields, to be published as a monograph in the Environmental Health Criteria Series. This publication will complement the monographs on static fields (2006) and extremely low frequency fields (2007), and will update the monograph on radiofrequency fields (1993).
The draft chapters of this document containing the scientific content are now open for consultation by RF experts. We are seeking comments on the accuracy and completeness of these chapters. Please note that the literature searches have been done up to December 2012 (in a few instances to December 2013), so the more recent studies are currently not included. While the searches and chapters will be updated before finalization of the document, any suggestions for inclusion of peer reviewed studies are welcomed. Note that Appendix X describes the process used in developing the chapters below. Also, the chapters providing a summary, health risk assessment and protective measures are not available for this consultation.
