Exposure Limits for Radiofrequency Energy: Three Models

نویسنده

  • Kenneth R. Foster
چکیده

For many years, these differences were most apparent between limits of Russia and most of Eastern Europe (which originated in the days of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact) and those of the United States and West Europe. This situation has become even more complicated with the recent adoption of “precautionary” limits by Switzerland, Italy, and a few other countries. Behind these differences are large differences in perception of science and health protection.

ارزیابی پرتوگیری مردم از آنتن‌های ایستگاه‌های تلفن همراه در کشور

Fast growth of the number of mobile phone subscribers in Iran, over the last few years, is the reason for construction of more and more base stations (BTS) especially in residential areas. As the BTS antennas emit radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic energy, so it is the main concern of general public about their health and safety. The aim of this research work is to assess public exposure...

ارزیابی پرتوهای فرابنفش لامپ‌های کم‌مصرف از نوع فلورسنت فشرده

Iranians are replacing traditional incandescent lamps with Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs), because they use about a quarter of the power of incandescent lamps and their lifecycle is up to ten times longer. Government encourages public to use CFLs too, for saving energy and reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Small amounts of mercury are used in CFLs, released to the environment if they are bro...

“Triple M” Effect: A Proposed Mechanism to Explain Increased Dental Amalgam Microleakage after Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Radiation

A large body of evidence now indicates that the amount of mercury released from dental amalgam fillings can be significantly accelerated by exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) such as common mobile phones and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Studies performed on the increased microleakage of dental amalgam restorations after exposure to RF-EMFs have further supported th...

Morphing and Posing of Computational Anatomical Models: Enhanced Patient-Speci�c MRI RF Exposure Prediction

Synopsis The current MRI safety standards for exposure to radiofrequency �elds are conservative and intended to protect the entire patient population. Limits set on whole-body average speci�c absorption rate take the patient’s weight into consideration, which allows robust, but only very rudimentary patientspeci�c exposure estimation. The introduction of combined morphing and posing in compu...

ارزیابی میدان‌های الکتریکی و مغناطیسی لامپ‌های کم مصرف از نوع فلورسنت فشرده از دیدگاه حفاظت پرتوی

The technology used in energy-saving compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), provides a quarter of the energy consumption of incandescent lamps to produce equivalent light energy while CLFs shelf life is up to ten times of incandescent lamps. So the incandescent lamps in homes and workplaces are replaced with CFLs. Due to the use of ballast in the structure of CFLs, electric and magnetic fields are g...
