Source text - English Mobile Phones, Brain Tumours and the Interphone Study
In just 15 years the mobile phone has evolved from an uncommon, expensive, brickshaped object used in restricted areas of Western countries to a convenient and ubiquitous part of modern life, with more than 4.6 billion subscriptions worldwide
(International Telecommunication Union 2010). The arrival of this mass technology has been accompanied by some public and media concern about the possibility that the radiofrequency (RF) fields emitted by the phones might cause cancer, especially
brain tumours. Numerous committees have considered the evidence and recommended more research (IEGMP 2000; SCENIHR 2009). Since 1999, a series of epidemiological studies of mobile phone use and cancer have been published, mainly
focused on brain tumour risks. Collectively, they have not provided evidence of a relationship, but they have had sufficient limitations to leave the question unresolved (Ahlbom et al. 2009).

Y EL ESTUDIO INTERFONO
En solo 15 años, el teléfono celular ha pasado de ser un objeto poco común, costoso y en forma de ladrillo utilizado en ciertas áreas de los países occidentales a convertirse en una herramienta práctica y ubicua de la sociedad moderna con más de 4.6 mil millones de usuarios a nivel mundial (Unión Internacional de Telecomunicaciones, 2010). La llegada de esta tecnología de masas ha venido acompañada de cierta preocupación pública y mediática sobre la posibilidad de que los campos de radiofrecuencia (RF) emitidos por los teléfonos celulares puedan producir cáncer, en especial, tumores cerebrales. Diversos comités han evaluado la evidencia y han recomendado que se lleven a cabo más estudios de investigación (IEGMP, 2000; SCENIHR, 2009). A partir de 1999 se ha venido publicando una serie de estudios epidemiológicos sobre el uso de teléfonos celulares y cáncer, con un enfoque principal en el riesgo de ocasionar tumores cerebrales. Esto estudios en conjunto no han proporcionado evidencia de que exista alguna relación, pero han demostrado tener suficientes limitaciones para dejar la pregunta sin respuesta (Ahlbom y colaboradores, 2009).
