Results from the largest epidemiological study of mobile phone use to date shows no link between mobile phones and brain tumors.
The study, published in the International Journal of Epidemiology, combines information from the 13 countries that took part in the study and focuses on the two main types of brain tumor: glioma and meningioma.
