Not sure if this is physics or general science, so what the heck I stick it her.
Airport body scanners have been making the news lately. One camp argues that they are an invasion of privacy while the other argues that security is far more important.
I was thinking why not have the best of both worlds. Why does an operator need to see the image? I would think the the computer should be able to scan for abnormalities and notify the operator, if one was found. The operator would then view the image to confirm the finding.
A computer does not get bored tired or distracted.
We pattern face match. Seems to me that checking for abnormalities in a body image would be much more simple. Is anything like this being done in the medical field for magnetic imaging?
