US Airports begin installation of
Radiation Portals to Screen Air cargo
 
Members involved in the air cargo business to and from USA may be interested to read that over the next six years, airports in the United States will be equipped with radiation detection equipment intended to scan virtually all air cargo, courtesy of an initiative by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Through our membership of TIACA we have been provided with a link to more reading on this subject at their website:
