“Safety” in this paper indicates not only injury inflicted by magnetic attractive force to ferromagnetic substances but also to chronic health problems through prolonged exposure to ELF (extremely low frequency)-electromagnetic fields. Safety issues of electromagnetic fields nowadays include those of super strong static magnetic field (MF), pulse MF and ELF time-varying MF. A strong magnetic field is used widely for MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) systems, for medical diagnosis, thus exposing the general public to such strong MF. The author describes the limit on application of strong MF for resolution improvement of MRI. Pulse MF is also applied in medical diagnosis. As stimulation of muscles and nerves depends on the level of dB/dt and on the duration of density alteration, direct stimulation of cardiac muscle by high dB/dt fields is one of the major concerns regarding the safe use of pulse MF in the medical and industrial fields. Regarding the safety of ELF time-varying MF many papers were published that reported a high incidence of leukemia or certain types of cancer in people living under high-power transmission lines and in people working in industrial fields in which ELF electromagnets are used. Typical epidemiological studies are practiced in Nordic countries where they use a computer registration system to analyze the demographics of the population. In particular, we know of the Swedish practice of strictly regulating the level of MF to 0.2-0.5μT to protect the residents under power lines. Personnel related to power facilities all over the world would pay attention to the movement of regulation of the fields strength under power lines.
