[Frameworks] does security scans/ xrays affect?

[Jorge Lorenzo Flores Garza]

Well, I jave heard that nowadays, if your film is over ISO 800, it might get damaged, but not under that.  I have crossed my film through x-rays in airports and nothing has happened.  But they've been rolls that I have just for fun shooting.  The only time I did work abroad on a documentary with 16mm, I asked the airport agents to not pull it through x-rays and they where glad to check it by hand...of course, without opening the cans, jeje.

There are example of damage done to film by airport security on the Kodak site:

The man at the airport told, 'professional film' at 1200 speed will be affected. 
Any links to any examples, photography or motion film? I've never seen the effects of x-ray.
