Converting from Kilogray (kGy) to Microroentgen (µR) | Radiation

What is Kilogray (kGy)

Kilogray (kGy) is a unit of absorbed dose of radiation in the International System of Units (SI). It measures the amount of energy absorbed per unit mass of a target material.

What is Microroentgen (µR)

Microroentgen (µR) is a unit of exposure to ionizing radiation, commonly used in radiology. It quantifies the amount of ionizing radiation required to produce a charge of 2.58 × 10^−4 coulombs in 1 kilogram of air.
