meaning of a sentence (maybe an incorrect one)
I'm a translator and as I was translating a paper about mobile phone radiation effects on the human head, I came across this sentence:
"The electromagnetic field is not the same outside and inside
a biological subject."
the paper is written by Russian authors and therefore, there are some grammatical errors in the context so I correct them as I translate, but I can't understand the meaning behind this sentence. any suggestions?

Radiation from the mobile 'phone creates an electromagnetic field both (1) outside the person's head and also (2) inside the person's head - but the electromagnetic field (1) outside the person's head (i.e. outside the "biological subject") is different from (2) the the electromagnetic field inside the person's head (i.e. inside the "biological subject"). If this doesn't answer your question, please explain more precisely what bit you don't understand.

Yes, please supply at least two different meanings that the sentence can have to you. For I can only see exactly one no matter how hard I squint. It is very literal, word for word. I would not know how to reword it to make it more clear than it already is.
