The researchers find some support for a bio mechanical view of whiplash neck injury but a range of inconsistencies in the view make it unreliable. Evidence from: Eck et al. American Journal of Medicine. June (2001) Vol. 110 # 8 p 651. H Kasch et al. Spine. June (2001) Vol. 26 #11 p 1246. topics addressed include MRI, NIC, ROM, collision speed.

2001. Emfs at 16.6 Hz and leukaemia and brain cancer.

The study found evidence of a statistical association between exposure to 16.6 Hz emfs and leukaemia and brain cancer. Evidence from: CE Minder et al. American Journal of Epidemiology. May (2001) Vol. 153 #9 p 825. This was a well designed study. Clearer evidence of a dose-response relationship would have strengthened the case that there is a genuine association. Other factors were not fully accounted for. The Radar report is available to subscribers: 1#5 11

The diagnostic test for asbestosis had been developed by ILO in 1980. It was proposed that HRCT would be more sensitive than the ILO scheme. Evidence from: O Huuskonen et al.
