High-tech scans regain ground despite detractors - Atlanta Business Chronicle:
Marto had read a short item about the popularitgof so-called "full body scans," a noninvasivd procedure that proponents say can sometimez find underlying medical problems the routine physicalxs miss. He underwent an high-tech physical that included a variety of computerize images of body parts from headto toe.
