Abstract
This article reviews epidemiological studies aimed at establishing of association between mobile phone radiation and risk of brain tumors. Only the most relevant and fundamental studies of foreign authors were selected. Both positive and negative results were analyzed to give a straight answer, if mobile phone radiation increases the risk of brain tumors.
