Nude images from airport body scans are a thing of the past.
The Transportation Security Administration has equipped all of its advanced imaging technology units with the required advanced target recognition technology, replacing the nude images produced by backscatter X-ray scanners, TSA Administrator John Pistole says in a May 24 letter (.pdf) to Congress.
TSA was unable to meet the original deadline of June 2012, but beat the extended deadline of May 31, 2013, by 2 weeks, Pistole reports.
He adds that the next generation of advanced imaging technology must include ATR capabilities.

All they had to do was have me walk through their scanner. One look at my naked body and they would swear off scanners forever!
