With my artificial hip, I always get special "handling".

Last time I went out of Phoenix they asked if it was OK to use the
full body scanner, and I said OK.

Unfortunately it takes enough time that screening every passenger
would slow things down... but it's a lot faster for me than the usual
take me aside for the full frisk and wand.
