Millimeter radiation imaging, a technology available but not used at most 
U.S. airports, can depict the naked body of a fully clothed person. The 
American Civil Liberties Union has opposed this technology, which is so 
advanced it can "detect the diameter of a woman's nipples, or whether a man 
has been circumcised." According to the ACLU, "If there is ever a place 
where a person has a reasonable expectation of privacy, it is under their 
clothing."
