A group of radiation-specific scientists from the University of California have sent a letter of complaint to John Holdren, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology. They declared that there are major health risks stemming from the use of full body scanners that are being used at airports.
"Unlike other scanners, these new devices operate at relatively low beam energies (28keV). The majority of their energy is delivered to the skin and the underlying tissue. Thus, while the dose would be safe if it were distributed throughout the volume of the entire body, the dose to the skin may be dangerously high."
