## Abstract ## Purpose To pool measurement data from individual studies on acute and temporal neurobehavioral effects of stray fields and reanalyze these using a Bayesian framework. ## Materials and Methods Data from tests assessing effects of exposure to stray fields (<1600 mT) from MRI systems
The World Health Organization (WHO), the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), and the German and Austrian Governments jointly sponsored an international seminar in November of 1996 on the biological effects of low-level radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields.

Groups of adult male Sprague Dawley rats (64 rats each) were exposed for 8 months to electromagnetic fields (EMF) of two different field strength combinations: 5microT - 1kV/m and 100microT - 5kV/m. A third group was sham exposed. Field exposure was 8 hrs/day for 5 days/week. Blood samples were coll
