Research Review for Possible Relation Between Mobile Phone Rediation and Brain Tumor

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to introduce a research review for the effect of Mobile phone radiation on human health and the possible relation between Mobile phone radiation and brain tumor. Mobile phones become increasingly prevalent throughout our society. In the year 2016, it was estimated that there were 4 billion cellular phone users worldwide; the number is growing by one million every month in the US. The goal of this paper is to give a brief overview and also discuss the biological effects of the exposure to mobile phones radiation. Many effects have been reported with the use of mobile phones on human organisms due to the exposure to electromagnetic radiation. Concerns about the links between using the mobile phones and biological effects, in particular, the brain tumors have been under research. As the other radio signals transmition devices, cellular phone emits radiofrequency energy, which can heat the brain tissues and cause damage to the brain cells. But even mobile phones operates at power level below the level at which such heating effects occur, long term exposure to low level RF from mobile phones could cause other types of health effects, such as brain cancer, due to energy absorption in the brain tissues. Some human biological experiments, such as Aly et al. 2014, Aly, et al. 2008 indicates, the average time for the human cells to respond to the effect of RF radiation was approximately 2.5 min, Hardell et al.2002, and Repacholi et al.1997 indicated increased risk with exposure to mobile phones radiation. The British Association festival of science was told recently that using a mobile telephone more than doubles the risk of developing brain cancer on the side of the head where the phone is held.
