I would be interested on where this information comes from about the ionising radiation of scanners being dangerous. Cancer Research UK say the dose is so low that there is no appreciable difference made. Indeed opinion seems to be why complain about the scanner when the flight gives exposure of around 100,00 times what a scanner gives. This assumes that the ionising type of scanner would be used and not the radiowave type which is as dangerous as a mobile, apparently. Link to Cancer Research Uk and the relevant page.

A link to the other information would be appreciated.
