Interaction of radiofrequency (RF) fields with biological tissue can involve either electric or magnetic fields. Many interaction mechanisms have been considered, both thermal and nonthermal, but it has not been established that any of these could result in adverse health effects at radiation levels below guidelines. The principles underlying most of these mechanisms have been well reviewed. The aim of the present study is to give a qualitative discussion of some of the more recently published work.
