Microsievert (µSv) to Rad (rd) converter

Converting from Microsievert (µSv) to Rad (rd) | Radiation

What is Microsievert (µSv)

Microsievert (µSv) is a unit of measurement used to quantify the biological effects of ionizing radiation on living organisms. It measures the amount of radiation absorbed by the body. The prefix "micro" indicates a factor of 10^-6, making microsievert a small unit of measurement.

What is Rad (rd)

Rad (rd) is a unit of absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. It measures the amount of energy absorbed per unit mass of the exposed object. Rad is an older unit of measurement compared to microsievert, and it has been largely replaced by the gray (Gy) in the International System of Units (SI). However, rad is still used in certain contexts for radiation protection.

Conversion Formulas

The default conversion formulas between microsievert (µSv) and rad (rd) are:

  • 1 (µSv) = 0.0001 (rd)
  • 1 (rd) = 10000 (µSv)

Examples

  • 14 (µSv) = 0.0014 (rd) 14 µSv×0.0001=0.0014 rd

  • 14 (rd) = 140000 (µSv) 14 rd×10000=140000 µSv

  • 3 (µSv) = 0.0003 (rd) 3 µSv×0.0001=0.0003 rd

  • 3 (rd) = 30000 (µSv) 3 rd×10000=30000 µSv

  • 4 (µSv) = 0.0004 (rd) 4 µSv×0.0001=0.0004 rd

  • 4 (rd) = 40000 (µSv) 4 rd×10000=40000 µSv
