Converting from Microsievert (µSv) to Milligray (mGy) | Radiation

What is Microsievert (µSv)

Microsievert (µSv) is a unit of measurement used to quantify the amount of ionizing radiation absorbed by a subject. It is commonly used in radiology and radiation protection to assess the potential biological effects of radiation exposure.

What is Milligray (mGy)

Milligray (mGy) is another unit of measurement for ionizing radiation, specifically measuring the amount of energy absorbed per unit mass of tissue. It is often used in medical imaging and radiotherapy to ensure accurate radiation doses are delivered to patients.

Conversion Formulas

The default conversion between Microsievert (µSv) and Milligray (mGy) is as follows:

• 1 µSv = 0.001 mGy
• 1 mGy = 1000 µSv

Examples

1. Converting 13 µSv to mGy:

13µSv×0.001=0.013mGy

2. Converting 9 mGy to µSv:

9mGy×1000=9000µSv

3. Converting 14 µSv to mGy:

14µSv×0.001=0.014mGy
