Magnetic field exposure related to cancer subtypes.

N Wertheimer1, E Leeper.   

Abstract

Certain subtypes of cancer (notably nervous system cancer) showed an association with two indices of exposure to 60-Hz alternating magnetic fields (AMFs): Subtype similarities were seen in those people potentially exposed to AMFs by their occupations, and in those potentially exposed by high-current power lines near their homes. The incidence-age patterns observed in exposed and nonexposed groups suggest that prolonged AMF exposure may act as a cancer promoter.
