Health aspects of wireless communication: schwannomas of the acoustic nerve and the use of mobile phones
Pages 1 - 3
Abstract
In a recently reported study, an increased risk of acoustic neuroma (also known as schwannoma) was found among persons in Sweden with 10 or more years of mobile-phone use [1]. There was no association with use less than 10 years, nor for other measures of use such as total hours of use or total number of calls made.
