Which airports have body-scanning technology? - CNN International

 More than 60 airports are using body-scanning machines to screen passengers.TSA: There are 385 scanning machines at 68 airports nationwide
About 24 million travelers are expected to fly over the Thanksgiving holiday
Many will bypass scanning, and the vast majority unlikely to be patted down
(CNN) -- Many Americans planning holiday travel have expressed concern -- even outrage -- over the the Transportation Security Administration's use of full-body scanning and enhanced pat-downs, but a large number of fliers are likely to bypass both screening procedures.
There are 385 full-body scanning machines at 68 airports nationwide, according to the TSA.
About 24 million air travelers are expected to fly over the Thanksgiving holiday period, according to the Air Transport Association of America, an airline trade group.
The group expects daily passenger volumes to range from 1.3 million to 2.5 million fliers. Certainly, some number of those will be asked to step into one of the full-body scanning machines. The rest will go through the metal detector lines as usual.
Passengers in either line may be selected for additional screening, including the enhanced pat-down procedure that allows security officers of the same sex to touch sensitive areas of a passenger's body. Fliers who decline the optional full-body scan will receive alternative screening, including a thorough pat-down, according to the TSA.
"It's important to remember that TSA screens nearly 2 million passengers daily and that very few passengers are required to receive a pat-down," according to a post on the TSA Blog.
The body-scanning machines use two separate means of creating images of passengers -- backscatter X-ray technology and millimeter-wave technology. About 190 backscatter machines have been installed in airports; the remainder are millimeter-wave machines.
The TSA website lists all the airports using advanced-imaging technology to screen passengers. The website does not specifiy which type of machine is used in each airport.
