Hectogray per second (hGy/s) is a unit of measurement used in the field of radiology and radiation therapy. It quantifies the rate of radiation dose delivered over time, specifically in hectograys per second. A hectogray is equivalent to 100 grays, a fundamental unit in the International System of Units (SI) for measuring absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. This unit is vital in applications where controlling the radiation dose rate is crucial, such as in medical treatments involving radiation therapy, ensuring precise dosages are administered to target tissues while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues.
Definition of Dekagray/secondDekagray per second (daGy/s) is a unit of radiation dose rate, representing the delivery of radiation energy to a material or tissue per second. It signifies the absorption of one dekagray of radiation every second. A dekagray equals 10 grays, with a gray being the SI unit for absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. This unit is particularly useful in contexts where moderate radiation levels are applied, such as in certain industrial radiography and radiation therapy procedures. Understanding and managing dose rates in daGy/s is essential for ensuring effective and safe use of radiation in various applications.
| Hectogray/second (hGy/s) | Dekagray/second (daGy/s) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 hGy/s | 1 daGy/s |
| 0.2 hGy/s | 2 daGy/s |
| 0.3 hGy/s | 3 daGy/s |
| 0.4 hGy/s | 4 daGy/s |
| 0.5 hGy/s | 5 daGy/s |
| 0.6 hGy/s | 6 daGy/s |
| 0.7 hGy/s | 7 daGy/s |
| 0.8 hGy/s | 8 daGy/s |
| 0.9 hGy/s | 9 daGy/s |
| 1.0 hGy/s | 10 daGy/s |
1 hGy/s = 10 daGy/s
1 daGy/s = 0.1 hGy/s
Example 1:
convert 5 hGy/s to daGy/s:
5 hGy/s = 5 × 10 daGy/s = 50 daGy/s
Example 2:
convert 3.5 hGy/s to daGy/s:
3.5 hGy/s = 3.5 × 10 daGy/s = 35 daGy/s
