Radiation dose is measured in several units. Sieverts (Sv) and rem measure biological equivalent dose. Gray (Gy) measures absorbed energy. mSv and mrem are common sub-units in medicine.

Formula

1 Sv = 100 rem | 1 mSv = 0.1 rem | 1 Gy = 1 J/kg absorbed energy

Guida passo passo

11 Sv = 100 rem
21 mSv = 0.1 rem = 100 mrem
31 Gy = 1 J/kg absorbed energy
4Effective dose = Absorbed dose × radiation weighting factor
