This article examines the effectiveness of radiological and nuclear (R&N) threat detection technologies. It assesses current methodologies, interdisciplinary approaches and their impact on national security. Utilizing an extensive literature review and the author’s expertise in CBRN defence, the study explores technological advancements, operational challenges and future research in R&N detection. It underscores the necessity of innovative, adaptive technologies integrated with strategic policy to address evolving R&N threats effectively. The paper also highlights the strategic role of these technologies in national security policies and global non-proliferation efforts.
