Can I Go Through Airport Security With My Joint Replacement?

Yes, but you want to be prepared as most knee and hip implants may set off the metal detectors.

 

It is best to let the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officer know before the screening begins. Show them exactly where the implant is. A card or note from your physician is not necessary. The TSA office will instruct you to go through the body scan machine or do a pat-down.
