3@jutky - Why is it any different for a man to be seen naked than a woman in respect to halacha?– Adam MoshehJun 10, 2012 at 22:09

They don't actually see you naked. The machine detects metal and it shows up on a standard picture. Last I checked, machines don't have hirhurim (not yet, anyway).– DonielFMay 8, 2017 at 15:05

Rav Moshe Shternbuch reportedly sees no problem with it.
