Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to
Radio Frequency Fields in Childhood and
Adolescence (MOBI-KIDS)
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the
relationship between exposure to radio frequency
energy from communication technologies including
cell phones and brain cancer in young people. This
is an international multi-center study involving 14
European and non-European countries. Additional
information about MOBI-KIDS can be found at

Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)
Program of the National Cancer Institute
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows
cancer statistics in the United States to detect any
change in rates of new cases for brain cancer.
If cell phones play a role in risk for brain cancer,
rates should go up, because heavy cell phone use
has been common for quite some time in the U.S.
Between 1987 and 2005, the overall age-adjusted
incidence of brain cancer did not increase.
