この研究は、マウスでの電離放射線誘発がんの成長に対する低レベルの高周波電磁界（RF）の影響を評価した。3 - 5週齢のメスのCBA/Sマウス200匹を、同数からなる4群に無作為に分け、それぞれケージ対照群、疑似ばく露群、２つのばく露群に割り当てた。ケージ対照群を除くすべての群のマウスに、まず電離放射線ばく露を与え、次いで1日1.5時間、週5日、78週間、RFばく露または疑似ばく露を与えた。ばく露群の１つには、NMT（Nordic Mobile Telephones）タイプの902.5 MHz周波数変調RF（連続波、SAR：1.5 W / kg）、もう１つには、GSM（Global System for Mobile）タイプの902.4 MHzパルス変調RF（パルス周波数217 Hz、SAR：0.35 W / kg）を用いた。体重、臨床徴候、ならびに食物と水の摂取量を定期的に記録した。また、全マウスの全ての病変および主要組織について血液学的検査および組織病理学的分析を行った。その結果、RFばく露は、いかなる新生物病変の発生率も有意には増加させなかった；これら知見は、携帯電話のRF放射によるがんのプロモート作用の証拠を提供していないと考える、と報告している。

| チャンバの詳細 | Three identical rectangular waveguide chambers made of aluminium were used in the study. The exposure chamber consisted of a straight rectangular section (24.8 cm x 20 cm) and of two waveguide-to-coaxial adapters. The total length of the chamber with the adapters was 190 cm. The mice were kept in small cylindrical acrylic restrainers (i.d. 32 mm, length adjustable) preventing them from aligning their longitudinal axis parallel to the electric field. The restrainers were placed 25 at a time on a Styrofoam holder so that each mouse was in the center of the cross section of the waveguide with its longitudinal axis perpendicular to the electric field and the direction of propagation. The distance between adjacent mice was 5 cm. The mice that were missing were replaced with mouse phantoms made of plastic cylinders partly filled with a solution simulating the dielectric properties of muscle at 900 MHz. |
| ばく露装置の詳細 | Modified and computer-controlled mobile phones were used as signal sources. The signals were amplified by boosters manufactured for vehicle use. RF power meters were used for measuring the input, reflected and output power of the exposure chamber. The output power was absorbed by a coaxial 10 W termination. The SAR was controlled daily by adjusting the input power. |
| Additional information | The animals were randomized into four equal groups: NMT exposure, GSM exposure, sham exposure and cage control. The sham exposed group was kept in an unenergised waveguide chamber. The mice in all groups except the cage-control group were exposed to ionizing radiation at the beginning of the study. The total-body dose was 4 Gy delivered as three equal fractions of 1.33 Gy at 1-week intervals with linear accelerators. The dose rate was 0.51 Gy/min. To ensure a uniform irradiation of the whole body, a Plexiglas scatterer was placed 15 cm above the animals. |
