What are Teragray and Millirad

A Teragray (TGy) is a unit of absorbed radiation dose in the International System of Units (SI), representing one trillion grays. It is primarily used in fields where extreme levels of radiation are involved, such as in certain industrial or scientific applications. One gray is the absorption of one joule of radiation energy by one kilogram of matter. Therefore, a Teragray is an exceptionally large measurement, often reserved for theoretical or highly specialized contexts.

A Millirad (mrad) is a unit of absorbed radiation dose, representing one-thousandth of a rad. The rad, short for radiation absorbed dose, is a legacy unit that measures the amount of energy absorbed by a material from radiation. While the rad has largely been replaced by the gray in many scientific contexts, the millirad is still used in some areas, especially in medical and environmental contexts, to quantify small doses of radiation.
