Determination of the detection limit and decision threshold for ionizing radiation measurements - Part 6 : fundamentals and applications to measurements by use of transient mode

ISO 11929-6:2005 specifies suitable statistical values which allow an assessment of the detection capabilities in ionizing radiation measurements by use of a transient mode. For this purpose, statistical methods are used to specify two statistical values characterizing given probabilities of error.ISO 11929-6:2005 deals with fundamentals and applications to measurements by use of transient mode.

Determination of the characteristic limits (decision threshold, detection limit and limits of the confidence interval) for measurements of ionizing radiation - Fundamentals and application

ISO 11929:2010 specifies a procedure, in the field of ionizing radiation metrology, for the calculation of the "decision threshold", the "detection limit" and the "limits of the confidence interval" for a non-negative ionizing radiation measurand, when counting measurements with preselection of time or counts are carried out, and the measurand results from a gross count rate and a background count rate as well as from further quantities on the basis of a model of the evaluation. In particular, the measurand can be the net count rate as the difference of the gross count rate and the background count rate, or the net activity of a sample. It can also be influenced by calibration of the measuring system, by sample treatment and by other factors.
