Abstract
We discuss a new method to determine the value of minimum detectable activity (MDA) in low-level measurements. The method is based on the Feldman–Cousins unified approach which effectively combines the construction of confidence intervals with the determination of the decision threshold and MDA. The new method requires a single probability to be pre-specified for the determination of MDA as well as decision threshold and confidence interval, in contrast with the ISO 11929 method requiring three probabilities.
