Radiation Absorbed Dose Converters
Convert between radiation absorbed dose units including grays (Gy), milligrays (mGy), and rad using exact multiplicative relationships.
Explanation
Absorbed dose describes the energy deposited by ionizing radiation per unit mass. This hub normalizes every factor through grays (Gy) so mirror conversions remain stable and reversible. Exact equivalence: 1 rad = 0.01 Gy.
Radiation Absorbed Dose pages are organized by conversion direction so mirror leaves remain aligned and comparable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SI unit of absorbed dose?
The SI unit is the gray (Gy).
How is rad related to Gy?
Exactly: 1 rad = 0.01 Gy.
What does mGy mean?
Milligray (mGy) means one-thousandth of a gray: 1 mGy = 0.001 Gy.
Are absorbed dose conversions multiplicative?
Yes. These conversions are purely multiplicative with no offsets.
