| Abstract |
A brief review is presented of the 30th annual meeting of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements held in April 1994 in Washington DC, USA. Separate sessions of the meeting covered dosimetry and measurement, interaction mechanisms and biological effects, epidemiology, decision making and public policy. Emphasis was on analyzing the possible biological pathways by which extremely low frequency fields could affect physiological functions and promote the development of disease. |
