Good news - this is a UK story masquerading as a local one though. Still...

New airport scanners may mean liquids and laptops can stay in your luggage

Air passengers could soon be spared the chore of having to remove their laptops and liquids from their carry-on luggage when going through security.New equipment, using what is known as CT technology, is being tested in Britain and the United States and could slash the times travellers spend getting through to the departure lounge.
Working in much the same way as CAT scanners do in hospitals, the new devices take detailed images of what is inside a passenger's luggage.
