Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection

[LastHope]

Hi Discovernew,

Here's the scanner testing of Coloplast Genesis malleable:

Please fast forward to 11:25.

Wow, thank you for sharing that, i don't understand anything because it is in Arabic. Do you understand Arabic? why is one of the implants ringing in the scanner and not the other one?

Nope! I had to use Google translator!
The Coloplast Genesis (thedriver's implant) passed the super scanner test, the Promedon Tube malleable from Argentina is the one that failed the test.

Thanks for the translation! I wonder if the tactra or rigi 10 would show up in a scanner as they are supposed to have a steel rod inside?

I also wonder about those full body scan machines they use nowadays

Four Rigi10 rods (stainless steel core) passes scan test in New York's JFK international airport. Here's a video!

The Boston Scientific Tactra has a Nitinol core, is recognized globally and should also not encounter any issues in international airports.

From Boston Scientific:
WILL MY IMPLANT SET OFF AIRPORT SECURITY?
An implant should not affect your ability to travel and to go through airport security. Of course, implants like those for knees or hips contain metal and will be detected by a wand or a walk-through scanner. Since most inflatable penile implants have minimal metal parts, they should not set off a metal detector. Some of the non-inflatable penile implants may, however, contain more metal. You will receive a patient ID card that identifies you as a medical device patient. To help avoid these types of situations, just carry it with you.

Good video, but i wonder about the full body scanners that are used in most airports nowadays, those do like a 3d scan of your body and show if there is any part of your body that contains anything suspicious

Let’s say they notice the spiral silver core of the Coloplast Genesis in the x-ray scanner. This implant has been around since 2004 and they've probably seen too many by now.

This visual is as much detail as they’re likely to observe, and frequent flyers can present a medical device ID card (example below) or keep a digital copy in something like Google Wallet.

Wow nice example, thank you for that. I would assume they can see the inflatables as well with thst kind of machine?

You're right. It probably depends on the sensitivity of the scanner. I can imagine for implanted airline pilots, their bionic abilities won't be a secret with the TSA.

wow, you can clearly see the reservoir and everything there. I am a very frequent flyer so its good to know this
