Figure 3. Histopathology analysis of rabbit tissues after 16 weeks-mobile phone radiation. Rabbit tissues were analyzed by H&E staining. Radiation, rabbits exposed to mobile phone radiation. Control, rabbits without exposure to mobile phone radiation. Normal/Lesion, normal or lesion tissues observed. Inflammatory cell infiltration (A, B, C, D) and cytoplasmic vacuolation (E) were indicated by black arrows. Representative results were shown. 200×, magnification.
