Summary:

This measurement study quantified the ELF MF produced from ultrasound devices in clinical settings. The ELF MF levels were measured during prenatal ultrasound monitoring (under the patient bed and on clinician’s chest) and during patient consultation (on the chair where patient is sitting). The ELF MF exposure levels from all situations were below 0.2 µT which is a thousand times below the current international guidelines for limiting public exposure.
