title: [ Effects of electromagnetic fields generated by mobile phones on the nervous system].
abstract: The authors present some data on the effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated by mobile phones on the nervous system. The main attention was paid to the usefulness of some neurophysiological methods, such as electroencephalography (EEG), multimodality evoked potentials (MEP), and event related potentials (ERP) in the evaluation of the bioelectrical activity of the brain. The majority of the cited articles underline the difficulties in the evaluation of adverse effects of EMF generated by mobile phones, which can result from their nonspecific influence on biological structures.
