Full Body Scanners emit 10 Times the Expected Radiation.
#5
From the professor quoted in the article you posted, he said that the chances of dieing from a single airport scanner in 1 in 30 million. Quite low.

Also says that he's more concerned about how he's more worried about the machines malfunctioning....but

Quote:But he added: 'They're both incredibly unlikely events. These are still a factor of 10 lower than the probability of dying in any one year from being struck by lightning in the United States.'

Didn't exactly read the whole article, but I'm pretty sure 1 in 30 million is quite the same chance as getting killed by a terrorist.
