Converting from Dekagray (daGy) to Millisievert (mSv) | Radiation

What is Dekagray (daGy)

Dekagray (daGy) is a unit of ionizing radiation dose equivalent, which indicates the amount of radiation absorbed by a human or animal tissue and the potential biological damage. It is equivalent to 10 gray.

What is Millisievert (mSv)

Millisievert (mSv) is also a unit of ionizing radiation dose equivalent, commonly used for measuring radiation exposure in medical and environmental contexts. One millisievert is equal to 0.001 sieverts or 1000 microsieverts.

Conversion Formulas

The default conversion between Dekagray and Millisievert is:

• 1 daGy = 10000 mSv
• 1 mSv = 0.0001 daGy

Additional Conversions:

• 10 daGy = 100000 mSv
• 10 mSv = 0.001 daGy
• 14 daGy = 140000 mSv
• 14 mSv = 0.0014 daGy
• 9 daGy = 90000 mSv
• 9 mSv = 0.0009 daGy

Examples

1. Convert 5 daGy to mSv:

5(daGy)×10000=50000(mSv)

2. Convert 250 mSv to daGy:

250(mSv)×0.0001=0.25(daGy)

By mastering the conversion formulas provided, you can easily convert radiation doses between Dekagray and Millisievert for various applications.
