How does CBP agriculture x-ray differ from standard TSA x-ray?

I noticed on https://www.cbp.gov/border-security/...ng-agriculture that
The CBP agriculture specialists work with specialized x-ray machines that detect organic materials.
Does anybody know what constitutes a "specialized x-ray" -- specifically, what precautions should we travelers be aware of? I'm reminded of the warning not to take old-school photographic film through TSA x-rays -- how are CBP's machines different?
