The market offers an increasing number of systems for measuring nuclear and radioactive material. These systems vary in several aspects but have one thing in common: they are used by human beings. Manufacturers often promise that their devices could be used by non-experts or untrained persons without loss in terms of the quality of results. Fraunhofer INT has a long lasting experience in evaluating measuring results of different detection systems, especially in the area of nuclear material. Automated analysis routines partly lead to results which are not correct and could be recognized as such directly by experts but would be taken as correct by non-experts. Measurements with hand-held devices operated by different persons showed the influe...
