I'm not, but I've read about them.  I have wondered whether the hapless
victim felt anything as they scanned their foot.  I was somewhat
purturbed by the heating sensation when I had an x-ray taken.  I hadn't
expected it, and didn't think to ask the operator about at the time.
No, I don't mean the incandescent lamp they use to aim the cross hairs
at the right place.  I mean when it emitted.
