ICNIRP Guidelines for Limiting Exposure to Electric Fields Induced by Movement of the Human Body in a Static Magnetic Field and by Time-Varying Magnetic Fields Below 1 Hz

Authored By:

The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection has published guidelines for the protection of workers against established adverse health effects arising from exposure to static magnetic fields and time-varying magnetic fields below 1 Hz and to avoid sensory effects which may be annoying and impair working ability (including vertigo, nausea, visual sensations, metallic taste and various neurocognitive effects). This includes, but is not limited to workers engaged in activities related to magnetic resonance imaging.

The Guidelines are available from the ICNIRP.
