Weak magnetic fields injurious to health, strong magnetic fields harmless? Radiation protection by the present of magnetic fields
Description
Usually magnetic fields are part of the environment without making injuries to health. Only when limits in standards were fixed the certainty become conscious that electromagnetic fields in their various forms must be hazardous. The effects of the pure magnetic fields cannot be found out easy because it is difficult to screen the magnetic fields, especially the magnetic field of the earth. This analyzis shall also find out how to hold limits by using extremely high magnetic fields in medicine and research. The results show that screening is no the only method when the practice requires behaviour where screening is not possible. (author)
