Converting from Kilogray (kGy) to Microsievert (µSv) | Radiation

What is Kilogray (kGy)

Kilogray (kGy) is a unit of absorbed dose of ionizing radiation in the International System of Units (SI). It measures the energy absorbed per unit mass of the exposed object.

What is Microsievert (µSv)

Microsievert (µSv) is a unit of equivalent dose of radiation. It quantifies the biological effect of low levels of ionizing radiation on the human body.
