So how would images from the backscatter be treated by something like FoIA?

There is a too easy way to test this. Find someone who is not shy, who would love the publicity, and whose "anatomical details" are known by the general public, for purposes of scientific comparison of course. ;) Like a Playboy Playmate of the Month. (one that did not need a lot of airbrushing :rolleyes: ) Have her duplicate her centerfold pose in a backscatter while clothed, take the highest resolution picture possible and release it to the public. Compare. Done.

Only if we can compare the centerfold picture to the raw data picture to the outline picture.
