Sex differences in MRI associated dizziness

The reported finding

Affirmative vestibular or neurobehavioural finding described in discovery dossier.

Reading it carefully

Retained in a separate regime-specific catalogue. No inference to Wi-Fi or mobile-phone exposures.

Inside the study

Exposure conditions
Tesla-scale MRI static magnetic fields and motion through gradients.
Design & controls
Human experiment.
The protection question raised
Is any sex difference in MRI-associated dizziness reproducible and relevant to susceptibility? Original results remain unverified, so the title alone cannot establish the effect or justify wider extrapolation.
Source verification
