If the terahertz (or millimeter wave) scanners the TSA currently uses were proposed for medical scanning, they would require multi-year clinical trials to determine their safety. TSA got to roll them out as soon as they were developed. You wonder what the terahertz frequencies -- partway between radio waves and microwaves -- are doing to our bodies.
