Microwave radiation has been widely used in various fields, such as communication, industry, medical treatment, and military applications. Microwave radiation may cause injuries to both the structures and functions of various organs, such as the brain, heart, reproductive organs, and endocrine organs, which endanger human health. Therefore, it is both theoretically and clinically important to conduct studies on the biological effects induced by microwave radiation. The successful establishment of injury models is of great importance to the reliability and reproducibility of these studies. In this article, we review the microwave exposure conditions, subjects used to establish injury models, the methods used for the assessment of the injuries, and the indicators implemented to evaluate the success of injury model establishment in studies on biological effects induced by microwave radiation.
微波辐射已广泛应用于通信、工业、医疗和军事等各个领域。微波辐射可能会对大脑、心脏、生殖器官和内分泌器官等各种器官的结构和功能造成损伤,危害人类健康。因此,研究微波辐射引起的生物学效应在理论和临床方面都具有重要意义。成功建立损伤模型对于这些研究的可靠性和可重复性至关重要。本文综述了微波辐射暴露条件、用于建立损伤模型的对象、评估损伤的方法以及评价微波辐射引起生物学效应的损伤模型建立成功的指标。
