Ask to be cooler - the airflow can be increased and depending on how compliant the tech is, the heating (SAR) can be reduced. A slightly longer, but cooler scan. Every scanner I’ve ever seen has an option for a mirror to see out, so that may be an option. Most magnets from the last 5 years are about 1.8m long, which helps. Some research magnets or older ones are a fair bit longer.
