MICROWAVES—A PUBLIC MENACE?

Unknown authors · 1972

Dr. Zaret examined over 400 individuals referred for microwave exposure during military studies between 1960 and 1971. One out of ten of those individuals had capsular opacity that would later develop into full-fledged cataracts. Microwave cataracts differ from normal ones by developing in the capsule and spreading gradually to the lens. These cataracts do not appear until at least five years after exposure, a delay Dr. Zaret calls a "time-bomb" quality.

DOSIMETRY STUDIES ON A UHF CAVITY EXPOSURE CHAMBER FOR RODENTS

Arthur W. Guy, Susan F. Korbel · 1972

Absorbed power density patterns were measured by thermographic techniques in simple phantom models of 227 gm rodents exposed to 500 MHz EM energy in a cavity type exposure chamber. The peak measured values varied between 0.35 and 90 mW /em? when the models were placed in fields corresponding to 1 mW/em= or lower of indicated power density. Peak absorption was highly dependent on posture and position of the phantom and was found to be as high as three orders of magnitude greater than that calculated for flat layered or equivalent spherical tissue models exposed to an incident plane wave with the same indicated power density.
