Security Screening
• Metal Detector, Chemical Analysis
• X-Ray Backscatter– Body Surface through
clothing– Plastic, Metal, Organic
• mm Wave technology– RF Terahertz range– Active or Passive– 3D showing surface objects
in high contrast

Soter RS
• Non invasive• Rapid, 20 sec• Surface plus internal
body• Less privacy issues
(Surface anatomy)• Low contrast
sensitivity

What’s The Dose
• Several studies-– Based on assessment of skin entrance dose conversion.– 2-5 uSv per scan.
• Problems –– Beam geometry– Appropriate allowance for partial volume irradiation– Studies of prototype units

Regulatory Concerns
• Risk associated with an individual scan is negligible, however physical benefit to the scanned individual is NIL.
• Individual benefits:– Non-invasive cf pat down and body search– Modesty and dignity– Lower exposure than traditional forms of
radiographic investigation.

Regulatory Concerns
• Social Benefits:– Security and safety– Control of contraband drugs, weapons,
environmental and economic threats.– Fast scan 16-18 sec
![Page 23: Radiation dose assessment of persons undergoing the soter rs security screening leslie](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052301/556e63aed8b42a6a248b4c9a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Regulatory Concerns
• Indiscriminate use would result in a significant dose burden to certain individuals:– Frequent flyers– Community release or remand prisoners– Employment screens
• 200 scans (4 per week) would equate to half the public exposure limit (0.5 mSv)
• Training
