“…The relationship between microwaves and the irreversible pathological conditions that result, in long or short term situations of repeated exposures have been the subject of many field studies [3,4,10,11,12,13,16,17]. However, the number of variables involved is so large that in spite of a degree of uniformity in the basis of analysis and measurement of the pathological changes, the various results have remained difficult to compare and appraise because of the lack of standardization in quantifying the measured or evaluated pathological changes and individual susceptibility of the different parts of the body.…”

“…Studies concerning the thermal and nonthermal effects of electromagnetic fields in humanbeings and animals which have been carried out hiterto, are largely restricted to the ocular and cardiovascular Systems, thermoregulatory and respiratory functions and metabolic activities [3,4,10,11,12,17].

“…A detailed study on this aspect is under progress and the results will be presented later. The scope of the present investigation covers one of the many hazardous radiation-pollutions which may arise äs a result of increased applications/usage of microwave energy [7]; and also it indicates one of the ecological implications of microwaves from the proposed space powered satellites of the coming years. …”

“…In normal practice, gross thermal effects are quantitatively established through dosimetry in which the power density of microwave radiation is experimentally linked [8,12] under controlled laboratory studies, to the transducted heat resulting from radiation energy absorbed by the whole-body under exposure; whereas, the so-called athermal effects are identified through observed epidemiological findings, which by their nature are uncontrolled. Cerebral and central nervous Systems [4,19,35] cardiac [28] and hemodynamical activities [10,11], embryo in utero [16,24], ocular Systems [6,22,23] and implanted devices [25] are a few typical examples of such vital Systems/ activities which have been subjected to rigourous studies in order to formulate and quantify the indices relating the causal phenomena and resultant efects under radiation environment.
