pam_auth also works, but is significantly more comples to configure
unless you have already done all the PAM configuration for the
authorization service selected. pam_auth won't magically use radius, you
also have to tell PAM to use radius for Squid, and have the (PAM) radius
client configured correctly..
If there is a specific auth helper I'd generally recommend to try that
before pam_auth, unless if you have a good knowledge of how to configure
PAM, for example if already done so for other services and want to use
the same configuration for Squid.
