U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and 
Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile 
phones, including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following 
summarizes what is known--and what remains unknown--about 
whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and what 
can be done to minimize any potential risk. This information may 
be used to respond to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (i.e., 
radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range while being 
used. They also emit very low levels of radiofrequency energy 
(RF), considered non-significant, when in the stand-by mode. It is 
well known that high levels of RF can produce biological damage 
through heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able 
to cook food). However, it is not known whether, to what extent, 
or through what mechanism, lower levels of RF might cause 
adverse health effects as well. Although some research has been 
done to address these questions, no clear picture of the biological 
effects of this type of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the 
available science does not allow us to conclude that mobile 
phones are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the 
available scientific evidence does not demonstrate any adverse 
health effects associated with the use of mobile phones.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the 
kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the 
user's head during normal telephone conversation. These types 
of mobile phones are of concern because of the short distance 
between the phone's antenna--the primary source of the RF--and 
the person's head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones in 
which the antenna is located at greater distances from the user 
(on the outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower than that 
from hand-held phones, because a person's RF exposure 
decreases rapidly with distance from the source. The safety of so-
called "cordless phones," which have a base unit connected to 
the telephone wiring in a house and which operate at far lower 
power levels and frequencies, has not been questioned.
