8. What has the FDA done to measure
the radio frequency energy coming
from wireless phones?
TheInstituteofElectricalandElectronic
Engineers(IEEE)isdevelopingatechnical
standardformeasuringtheradiofrequency
energy(RF)exposurefromwireless
phonesandotherwirelesshandsetswith
theparticipationandleadershipofFDA
scientistsandengineers.Thestandard,
“RecommendedPracticeforDetermining
theSpatial-PeakSpecificAbsorptionRate
(SAR)intheHumanBodyDuetoWireless
CommunicationsDevices:Experimental
Techniques,setsforththefirstconsistent
testmethodologyformeasuringtherate
atwhichRFisdepositedintheheadsof
wirelessphoneusers.
Thetestmethodusesatissue-simulating

SARtestmethodologyisexpectedtogreatly
improvetheconsistencyofmeasurements
madeatdifferentlaboratoriesonthe
samephone.SARisthemeasurementof
theamountofenergyabsorbedintissue,
eitherbythewholebodyorasmallpart
ofthebody.Itismeasuredinwatts/kg(or
milliwatts/g)ofmatter.Thismeasurementis
usedtodeterminewhetherawirelessphone
complieswithsafetyguidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to radio frequency energy
from my wireless phone?
Ifthereisariskfromtheseproducts—and
atthispointwedonotknowthatthere
is—itisprobablyverysmall.Butifyouare
concernedaboutavoidingevenpotential
risks,youcantakeafewsimplestepsto
minimizeyourexposuretoradiofrequency
energy(RF).Sincetimeisakeyfactorin
howmuchexposureapersonreceives,
reducingtheamountoftimespentusinga
wirelessphonewillreduceRFexposure.If
youmustconductextendedconversations
bywirelessphoneeveryday,youcould
placemoredistancebetweenyourbodyand
thesourceoftheRF,sincetheexposure
leveldropsoffdramaticallywithdistance.
Forexample,youcoulduseaheadsetand
carrythewirelessphoneawayfromyour
bodyoruseawirelessphoneconnectedto
aremoteantenna.Again,thescientificdata
donotdemonstratethatwirelessphonesare
harmful.Butifyouareconcernedaboutthe
RFexposurefromtheseproducts,youcan
usemeasureslikethosedescribedabove
toreduceyourRFexposurefromwireless
phoneuse.
