Converting from Nanosievert (nSv) to Millisievert (mSv) | Radiation

What is Nanosievert (nSv)

Nanosievert (nSv) is a unit of radiation measurement commonly used to quantify low levels of exposure. It is equal to one billionth of a sievert, which is the primary unit for measuring ionizing radiation's biological effects.

What is Millisievert (mSv)

Millisievert (mSv) is a larger unit of radiation measurement, equal to one thousandth of a sievert. It is often used to measure higher levels of radiation exposure, such as in medical imaging or occupational settings.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between nanosieverts (nSv) and millisieverts (mSv) is straightforward:

1 nSv=0.000001 mSv

1 mSv=1000000 nSv

Examples

• 11 nSv is equal to 0.000011 mSv
• 11 mSv is equal to 11000000 nSv
• 10 nSv is equal to 0.00001 mSv
• 10 mSv is equal to 10000000 nSv
• 15 nSv is equal to 0.000015 mSv
• 15 mSv is equal to 15000000 nSv

Use this information to perform conversions between nanosieverts and millisieverts, essential for understanding and comparing radiation exposure levels.
