Caspian's microchip cancer report sets the record straight after misleading claims by HomeAgain and VeriChip microchip implant manufacturers.

A new paper titled "Microchip-Induced Tumors in Laboratory Rodents and Dogs: A Review of the Literature 1990–2006" has been released today by CASPIAN.

The full, 48-page paper provides a definitive review of the academic literature showing a causal link between implanted radio-frequency (RFID) microchip transponders and cancer in laboratory rodents and dogs.

In addition, a brief, four-page synopsis of the full report is being made available.

Benezra QuoteEleven articles previously published in toxicology and pathology journals are evaluated in the report.

In six of the articles, between 0.8% and 10.2% of laboratory mice and rats developed malignant tumors around or adjacent to the microchips, and several researchers suggested the actual tumor rate may have been higher.

Two additional articles reported microchip-related cancer in dogs.
