Details for Gray (SI Unit of Absorbed Dose)
Introduction : The gray is the SI unit for absorbed radiation dose, representing one joule of energy absorbed per kilogram of matter. It's crucial in radiation therapy and radiation protection.
History & Origin : Named after British physicist Louis Harold Gray in 1975. It replaced the rad as the standard unit in scientific work, providing better compatibility with SI measurements.
Current Use : Used in medical radiation therapy (typical doses 1-80 Gy), food irradiation (1-10 kGy), and industrial applications. Essential for quantifying radiation effects on materials and living tissue.
Details for Centigray (Medical Radiation Unit)
Introduction : One hundredth of a gray, equivalent to one rad. Widely used in radiation therapy.
History & Origin : Became important in medical applications as it provides a convenient bridge between gray and rad units.
Current Use : Standard unit in radiation oncology (typical doses 180-200 cGy per fraction). Allows easy conversion between gray and rad scales.
