Abstract

A method is described for the detection of radiation from an item (2) intended for human consumption such as a food or drink item by combined processing of spectral data from a plurality of radiation detectors (4, 6), in particular with a plurality of response functions, comprising: collecting data from radiation incident at each detector (4, 6); producing a spectral histogram for the collected data from each detector (4, 6); deconvoluting the histograms from each detector (4, 6) by applying a suitable numerical deconvolution such as a Bayesian deconvolution and in particular that makes use of the response matrix for each detector (4, 6) to derive a single spectral histogram that representatively combines information from the plurality of detectors (4, 6). An apparatus, such as a hybrid detector apparatus, to which the method can be applied is also described.
