Nanogray/second (nGy/s) is a unit of measurement used to express the rate of radiation dose absorbed per second. It quantifies how many nanograys, a subunit of the gray, are delivered to a given mass over the course of one second. This unit is particularly relevant in fields such as medical physics and radiobiology, where precise radiation measurements are essential. The nanogray is one billionth of a gray, the SI unit for absorbed dose, allowing for detailed and precise dose rate calculations that are crucial for both research and practical applications involving radiation exposure.
Definition of Centigray/secondCentigray/second (cGy/s) is a unit of radiation dose rate, expressing how many centigrays of radiation are absorbed by a material or tissue per second. A centigray is one hundredth of a gray, the SI unit for absorbed dose. This measurement is vital in fields like radiation therapy, where accurate dosimetry ensures that cancer patients receive the correct amount of radiation for effective treatment. By using cGy/s, practitioners can precisely control the delivery of radiation over time, optimizing therapeutic outcomes while minimizing potential side effects.
Nanogray/second (nGy/s) | Centigray/second (cGy/s) |
---|---|
0.01 nGy/s | 0.000001 cGy/s |
0.1 nGy/s | 0.00001 cGy/s |
1 nGy/s | 0.0001 cGy/s |
10 nGy/s | 0.001 cGy/s |
100 nGy/s | 0.01 cGy/s |
1,000 nGy/s | 0.1 cGy/s |
10,000 nGy/s | 1 cGy/s |
100,000 nGy/s | 10 cGy/s |
1,000,000 nGy/s | 100 cGy/s |
10,000,000 nGy/s | 1,000 cGy/s |
1 nGy/s = 0.0001 cGy/s
1 cGy/s = 10,000 nGy/s
Example 1:
convert 500 nGy/s to cGy/s:
500 nGy/s = 500 × 0.0001 cGy/s = 0.05 cGy/s
Example 2:
convert 3500 nGy/s to cGy/s:
3500 nGy/s = 3500 × 0.0001 cGy/s = 0.35 cGy/s
The Nanogray/second to Centigray/second Converter emerged as a necessity in the fields of medical physics and radiobiology. Initially, researchers utilized manual calculations to convert radiation dose rates, which were prone to errors and time-consuming. Over the years, with advancements in technology, automated converters were developed, providing accurate and efficient solutions.
