What are Milligray/second and Dekagray/second

Definition of Milligray/second

Milligray/second (mGy/s) is a unit of measurement representing the rate at which radiation dose is absorbed by a material per second. It is derived from the gray (Gy), which is the SI unit for absorbed dose, indicating the energy imparted by ionizing radiation to matter. The milligray is a submultiple of the gray, where 1 mGy equals 0.001 Gy. This unit is commonly used in fields such as radiology and radiation therapy to quantify the dose rate, enabling professionals to assess exposure and ensure safety in medical and industrial applications.

Definition of Dekagray/second

Dekagray/second (daGy/s) is a unit of measurement used to quantify the rate of radiation dose absorption, where one dekagray equals ten grays. The gray (Gy) is the SI unit of absorbed radiation dose, representing the energy imparted to a substance by ionizing radiation. By using the dekagray/second, professionals can easily manage and communicate larger dose rates without resorting to scientific notation. This unit finds application in settings where high radiation doses are administered or encountered, such as radiation therapy for cancer treatments, facilitating precision and clarity in dose management.

Milligray/second to Dekagray/second Conversion Table

Milligray/second (mGy/s) Dekagray/second (daGy/s)
0.01 mGy/s 0.0001 daGy/s
0.1 mGy/s 0.001 daGy/s
1 mGy/s 0.01 daGy/s
10 mGy/s 0.1 daGy/s
100 mGy/s 1 daGy/s
200 mGy/s 2 daGy/s
300 mGy/s 3 daGy/s
400 mGy/s 4 daGy/s
500 mGy/s 5 daGy/s
1000 mGy/s 10 daGy/s

Conversion of Milligray/second to Dekagray/second

1 mGy/s = 0.01 daGy/s
1 daGy/s = 100 mGy/s

Example 1:
convert 50 mGy/s to daGy/s:
50 mGy/s = 50 × 0.01 daGy/s = 0.5 daGy/s

Example 2:
convert 150 mGy/s to daGy/s:
150 mGy/s = 150 × 0.01 daGy/s = 1.5 daGy/s

History of Milligray/second and Dekagray/second
