The most risk comes from shorter wavelengths (higher frequencies). Gamma rays and x-rays are extremely short wavelengths and those can pose a risk because they are in the ionizing radiation region; however, these are not considered radio waves, at least I don't consider them to be RF (radio frequency) in nature.
