In the EU, some countries tested security scanners and have now introduced security
scanners under the new rules. In the current international context, security scanners are
being deployed at airports worldwide, especially in the USA which deploys currently
several hundred security scanners. Russia has been using security scanners at airports
since 2008 and will continue to deploy them more widely in the future. Other countries
are either planning (e.g. Canada, Australia) or examining the possibility of introducing
security scanners (e.g. Japan).
