Radiation.... or not?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but do these new full body scanners not use ionising radiation (more specifically, X-Rays)?
And if so, what dosage? How much compared to, say, a standard Chest X-Ray?

Will there be the option to opt out?
Personally, I would much rather be frisked than have my cellular DNA bombarded with God-knows-what-beams...
