Dynamic background radiation is mitigated during crane hoisted transport at a quayside crane of a container along a transport path. A background distribution for the background radiation along the transport path is developed. Concurrently with the crane hoisted transport of the container along the transport path radiation data from each of a plurality of detectors disposed in a spatially fixed relationship to the container is obtained. The radiation data in conjunction with positionally commensurate background distribution, can then be analyzed. From such analysis, a positive determination or a negative determination of the radioactive material being present in the container can then made.
