dc.description.abstract |
This study examines technologies currently deployed at United States seaport points of entry to enable U.S. Customs (CBP) agents to inspect all entering closed containers. Analyses of literature published between 2002 and 2009 focuses on use, effectiveness and development of selected technologies, including gamma-ray and X-ray imaging, and radiation detection, as well as research on current screening technologies. The outcome supports CBP inspectors to detect dangerous cargo and minimize disruptions to the international supply chain. |
