See note below from Mahesh...

...
I was recently interviewed on PBS Newshour (formerly PBS Newshour with
Jim Lehrer) regarding airport whole body scanners and perspectives on
radiation dose and associated risks. The story was aired on Jan 20th,
2010 and the link to the story is as follows:

I was also interviewed on Voice of America (VOA) on similar subject. The
story was aired on Jan 13th, 2010 and the link to that story is as
follows:

I wanted to share this with you.
Sincerely,
