    Robert L McIntosh
    Telstra Corp Ltd, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
    Bioelectromagnetics 29:71-80. 2008
    ..The resultant temperature increase is well below the maximum rise of 1 degrees C recommended by ICNIRP. Effects in the cochlea were insignificant...

    Robert L McIntosh
    Australian Centre for Radiofrequency Bioeffects Research, Hawthorn, Vic, 3122, Australia
    Phys Med Biol 55:N111-22. 2010
    ..In general, the SAR levels in the foetuses were determined to be slightly lower (around 14% lower than the average values of the dam) and the peak temperature increase was significantly lower (45%) than the values in the dam...

    Robert L McIntosh
    Australian Centre for Radiofrequency Bioeffects Research, Hawthorn, Australia
    Bioelectromagnetics 31:467-78. 2010
    ..This choice is also based on other considerations such as ease of assessment. We also recommend that the limit level of S(inc) should be adjusted to provide a better match with 10 g SAR in the induced tissue temperature rise...
  5. ncbi SAR versus VAR, and the size and shape that provide the most appropriate RF exposure metric in the range of 0.5-6?GHz
    Robert L McIntosh
    Australian Centre for Radiofrequency Bioeffects Research, Hawthorn, Australia
    Bioelectromagnetics 32:312-21. 2011
    ..The optimal averaging volume is 10?cm(3) for VAR, and the optimal mass is 10?g for SAR. The correlation between VAR or SAR and ?T diminishes substantially at 6?GHz, where incident power flux density may be a better exposure metric...

    Bioelectromagnetics 31:454-66. 2010
    ..However, this result must be weighed against partly conflicting indications from complex body modeling in the second article of this series, which incorporates near-field effects and the influence of complex body geometries...
