@tech.explain: How does a TSA scanner see through your clothes? You've probably been through a TSA scanner but have you ever wondered why they only see the surface of your body? Turns out there's some pretty complex technology happening the second you step into the booth.

“It doesn’t see through anything it bounces” except you said it goes through the close unaffected by its low dielectric constant. So it’s seeing through the clothes…
