No link between mobile phones and cancer (acoustic neuroma), concludes Danish study

People who have used a mobile phone for 10 years are no more likely than short term users to develop cancer as a result, according to the first results of the most authoritative study so far undertaken to look for a link.

This post on the Cordis News site presents the report by INTERPHONE study, coordinated by the international agency for research on cancer (IARC). The study is the largest of its kind, involving close to 8,000 cancer sufferers and 10,000 control subjects in 13 countries across Europe and the rest of the world.

Here's the journal article (requires subscription to view pdf):

Cellular Telephone Use and Risk of Acoustic Neuroma, Am. J. Epidemiol. 2004 159: 277-283 (http://aje.oupjournals.org/cgi/reprint/159/3/277.pdf)
