Abstract: Various methods for the non-destructive characterization of radioactive waste packages are applied in routine operation for identification and quantification of their radioactive inventory. As accuracy and precision play are an important role in the final documentation, an approach based on Bayesian statistics is presented for the evaluation of transmission data measured by digital radial radiography. The results of these data evaluations are probability density functions allowing to make predictions of the probability for a value a parameter can have. Furthermore a priori information can be easily considered in these evaluations. The applicability of the method is demonstrated by some elementary examples and shall act encouragingly for interested users for own investigations.
