I am concerned/curious about the level of radiation involved in these scans…about the monitering of machines to be sure that they are correctly calibrated. The fact that this women objected on a “Health basis” leads me to think that these are not benign scans. How much radiation is used compared to say…dental x-rays or chest x-rays? Sheila
Sheila,
Please see what the TSA has written about this on their website at http://www.tsa.gov/approach/tech/imaging_technology.shtm
Hope this helps,
Rick
I’m curious: does full body pat down include checking for items in underwear? If not, then I don’t understand why scans aren’t enforced. Thanks
