IS THE BODY SCANNER DANGEROUS?
A body scanner is definitely dangerous and we will see the rate of cancer in the U.S. sky-rocket! No other country in the world, except the Netherlands, uses it. We use Sun Screen products to protect ourselves against sun light. Sun light only has UV Rays, not x-rays. X rays are millions of times more carcinogenic (cancer causing) than the UV Rays of sun light.
WHICH CANCERS WILL RISE?
The human skin is very susceptible to any type of radiation. The reason: the cells in the skin are constantly multiplying and then being cast off. When a cell multiplies, its DNA becomes exposed. Exposed DNA is very prone to Mutation. When DNA mutates, cancers emerge. Skin cancer is the most common form of human cancer.
The Body Scanner exposes the Skin to radiation. Almost all of the active radiation hits the skin. That is why we can see a picture of the surface of the body.
WHICH SKIN CANCERS ARE DEADLY? ALL SKIN CANCERS ARE DEADLY!
There 3 major groups of skin cancers:
- MELANOMA
- SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA
- BASAL CELL CARCINOMA
MELANOMA IS THE MOST DANGEROUS OF ALL CANCERS! THAT MEANS ANY TYPE OF CANCER KNOWN TO MEDICINE! BREAST CANCER, PROSTATE CANCER AND CANCERS OF THE INNER ORGANS ARE NO WHERE CLOSE TO BEING AS DANGEROUS AS SKIN MELANOMA!
Melanoma can occur at any age. It is very common amongst children and young people. Exposing children and young people to ionizing radiation is criminal.The American Government will be recorded in history as either stupid or criminal.
THE GOVERNMENT SAYS IT IS SAFE?
The FDA is a propaganda arm of the federal government. The FDA will produce evidence for any lie the Federal Government wants to propagate.
Scientists across the world are warning the public not to expose themselves to radiation of the skin. These scientists worry about Ultra Violet radiation. They emphatically think that X Rays are thousands of time worse than the UV radiation of the sun.
MY WARNING
If you expose yourself to the Body Scanner you open up the road to possible cancer. This x ray exposure is much worse than any terrorist attack.
Here are two comments by certified medical specialistas:
If a person were receiving radiation exposure only from the backscatter technology, the risk could be dramatically different than if the backscatter exposure were to occur in addition to other exposures, such as those from flying at altitude.
Furthermore, the amount of exposure is greater than TSA contends. According to Dr. David Brenner of Columbia University:
“The number given [by TSA] is what the whole body receives on average. However, the whole body isn’t actually receiving the radiation exposure. The skin on the scalp receives 20 times the average dose that is typically quoted by TSA and throughout the industry. It’s still a low dose, but it’s much more than what’s usually said.”
Dr. Brenner believes that this kind of exposure could lead to additional cases of basal cell cancers:
“The concern is that radiation promotes pre-existing damage….Since the cancer rate is so high for basal cell carcinoma, this number could be multiplied further by radiation risks.”
These concerns are echoed by David Argard, a biochemist at the University of California:
“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.”
“[T]here really is no threshold of low dose being OK. Any dose of X-rays produces some potential risk.”
Dr. Pinna says:
I picked these quotes at random from Google. But, you will note how these scientists focus on the skin, not the total body.
Here is a quote from Wikipedia:
“The majority of [the scanners'] 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. The X-ray dose from these devices has often been compared in the media to the cosmic ray exposure inherent to airplane travel or that of a chest X-ray.
However, this comparison is very misleading: both the air travel cosmic ray exposure and chest X- rays have much higher X-ray energies and the health consequences are appropriately understood in terms of the whole body volume dose.
In contrast, these new airport scanners are largely depositing their energy into the skin and immediately adjacent tissue, and since this is such a small fraction of body weight/vol, possibly by one to two orders of magnitude, the real dose to the skin is now high.
In addition, it appears that real independent safety data do not exist.”
The U.S Government is trying to scam the public once again, by twisting facts. If the dose they describe hits a a chromesome in a mole, goodbye…
NOTE ONE: If you have Celtic Genes (redish hair, freckles–my entire family) You are more prone to Melanoma. Avoid the scanner.
NOTE TWO: If you are a lawyer involved in tort law, liability law, get ready to sue the U.S. Government. I predict thousands of cases in one to two years.
There is no way the TSA can defend these scans which target the skin. Thousands of people develop skin cancer every month. If they have gone through a scan, that additional radiation could easily have triggered cells to explode into cancer.
In the U.S., a jury will decide. Almost every jury will hate the TSA for their intrusive behavior. Lawyers will win large settlements. It will be these settlements that will cause the Government to give up their hopes of intimidating the public.
NOTE THREE: Why doesn’t the government post a warning on the machines–This Machine can cause cancer. All radiation can cause cancer. The U.S. Government is treating the public like pigs are treated in a pig factory!
NOTE FOUR: Sun Screen will NOT protect you. It only blocks ultra violet rays–not X Rays.

I would like to thank Dr. Pinna for his very informative article, I would add that in addition to young children, expecting mothers, people with a defect in the BARC1 gene should avoid x-rays. Not all x-ray backscatter machines are created equal Rapiscan (dark blue box) for example uses 60,000Vp (dental energy) x-rays that are primarily absorbed by first cm of skin, dose to skin, breast, eyes, and testicles is very high.
Another common backscatter machine made by AS E uses 125,000 Vp hard (CT/chest medical energy) x-rays very penetrating absorbed by the whole body. So powerful a few percent of the x-rays will pass a 10″ 25cm body just like a chest x-ray, claims X-rays harmlessly bounce off is just false.
Note:
1) Very Very detailed images are saved.
2) x-rays are very penetrating and do damage DNA.
3) Being in the radioactive security area does add to your life time dose.
4) Counter intuitive high energy cosmic rays are hundreds of times less dangerous than soft medical x-rays. Comparing a few min of air travel to a scan is deceptive.
5) No amount of claims that scanner x-rays are safe will change laws of physics.
6) Specific materials absorb x-rays.
7) For your health avoid scanners.
8) Your personal items are at risk of theft in security area.
9) Get exercise, rest, sunshine, and have fun.
