I have two bionic knees, and use pre-check. When I set off the WTMD I'm directed to the scanner and then I opt out. TSA sends my shoes back through and I get the full pat down. Opting out is my choice, but you can choose to go through the scanner if you so desire.

I like the fact that I don't have to take out my freedom baggie or laptop, and I can leave on my suit coat. Plus, I don't wait nearly as long for a female assist to show up as in the other security lines.
