Microwave Effects on Central Nervous System Attributed to Thermal Factors.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA007519 | Need Help?

Abstract:

Microwave-produced changes in central nervous system-evoked potentials appear limited to thermal effects, as evidenced by similar changes being elicited by equivalent non-radiation heating, and reduction or even reversal of radiation effects with concurrent brain cooling.
