What are Microgray and Nanogray

Definition of Microgray

The microgray, symbolized as µGy, represents a unit of absorbed radiation dose in the International System of Units (SI). It quantifies the amount of energy deposited by ionizing radiation in a small volume of matter, typically biological tissue. One microgray equals one-millionth of a gray, making it useful in measuring low radiation doses often encountered in medical, environmental, or experimental settings. Understanding microgray measurements is crucial for assessing radiation exposure risks and ensuring safety in various applications, from radiology to environmental monitoring.

Definition of Nanogray

A nanogray, abbreviated as nGy, is a unit of absorbed dose of ionizing radiation in the International System of Units (SI). It quantifies the radiation energy absorbed per unit mass of a material, typically biological tissue. One nanogray equals one-billionth of a gray, allowing for precise measurement of very low doses of radiation. This unit becomes particularly valuable in fields such as radiation protection, environmental science, and medical research, where accurate dose assessments are essential for understanding potential health impacts and ensuring safety.
