This sounds like a new kind of misery being inflicted by the staff of the new scanners.
Dublin Airport: Woman asked to remove breast prosthesis at security
BBC Web News
A woman who had a mastectomy has said she was "stunned" when she was asked to remove her breast prosthesis after setting off a new security scanner alarm at Dublin Airport.
Realtán Ní Leannáin, who is from Belfast but lives outside Dublin, was travelling to Donegal. She said she was "like a rabbit caught in the headlights" during the incident.
Dublin Airport has apologised and said the situation should have been handled better. Ms Ní Leannáin told BBC NI's Evening Extra programme: "The security officer didn't even offer to pat me down. She stood and waited for me to remove the prosthesis.
... should have been handled better ... Fabulous corporate speak.
