Japanese study clears mobiles of brain cancer risk
LONDON (Reuters) - Using a mobile phone does not increase your risk of brain cancer, according to a new Japanese study that is the first to consider the effects of radiation on different parts of the brain.

The finding adds to the growing body of evidence that mobile phones are safe.

Scientists at Tokyo Women's Medical University compared phone use in 322 brain cancer patients with 683 healthy people and found that regularly using a mobile did not significantly affect the likelihood of getting brain cancer.

Please note this fact from this article"Despite an explosion in mobile phone use around the world since the 1980s, the number of cases of brain cancer has hardly changed"

3. This is old news.
My psychic predicted this back in 2001. Why are scientists so slow?
