No cell phone, brain tumor link, study says
WASHINGTON - A very large, 30-year study of just about everyone in Scandinavia shows no link between cell phone use and brain tumors, researchers reported on Thursday.

Even though mobile telephone use soared in the 1990s and afterward, brain tumors did not become any more common during this time, the researchers reported in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

Some activist groups and a few researchers have raised concerns about a link between cell phones and several kinds of cancer, including brain tumors, although years of research have failed to establish a connection.
