Leukemia and Other Cancers

• IARC Monograph on ELF: Static and Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Electric and Magnetic Fields. International Agency for Research on Cancer, (2002), 34 KB PDF, 8 pages. After an evaluation of the scientific data, the IARC concluded there is limited evidence on humans for the carcinogenicity of ELF magnetic fields in relation to childhood leukemia and categorized the agent as Class 2B (Possibly carcinogenic to humans). There is inadequate evidence in relation to all other cancers (Class 3).
• 1999 NIEHS Report on Health Effects from Exposure to Power-Line Frequency Electric and Magnetic Fields. National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), National Institutes of Health Publication No. 99-4493. States that the strongest evidence for health effects comes from associations observed in human populations with two forms of cancer: childhood leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia in occupationally exposed adults.
• ELF Electromagnetic Fields and the Risk of Cancer: Report of an Advisory Group on Non-ionising Radiation. Health Protection Agency, National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) Documents, Volume 12, No. 1. Reviews the evidence on cancer risks from residential and occupational extremely low frequency (ELF)- electric magnetic field (EMF) exposures, which has been published since an earlier NRPB report (1992).
• Assessment of Health Effects from Exposure to Power-Line Frequency Electric and Magnetic Fields. National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Working Group Report, (1998, August). By a vote of 19 to 9, a panel of experts convened by the NIEHS concluded that the electric and magnetic fields like those surrounding electric power lines should be regarded as a "possible human carcinogen." This conclusion was based largely on human epidemiological evidence in the face of animal and other laboratory studies that the panel agreed did not support or refute the population studies.
