Abstract
Sources of electromagnetic fields of non-ionising radiation (EMF-NIR) are increasingly common in our life style, while discussion regards their potential health effects remains unclear. The aim of this study is to collect and summarize experimental and epidemiological studies published concerning health effects of EMF-NIR. Although there are plenty studies and projects on this subject, there are several unclear issues, especially because problems arising from methodological limitations preclude getting a clear conclusion. Greater effort should be made in the future in order to estimate better the exposure.
