What Is This Tool?

This unit converter enables the transformation of radiation absorbed dose values from attogray (aGy) to centigray (cGy). It helps users translate measurements of very small radiation doses into more widely used clinical units.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the absorbed dose value in attogray (aGy).
  • Select attogray as the input unit and centigray as the output unit.
  • Click convert to get the equivalent dose in centigray (cGy).

Key Features

  • Converts radiation absorbed dose between attogray and centigray units.
  • Supports translation of scientific data to medically relevant dose units.
  • Browser-based and straightforward to use for researchers and clinicians alike.

Examples

  • 5 aGy converts to 5 × 1e-16 cGy = 5e-16 cGy.
  • 1 aGy converts to 1 × 1e-16 cGy = 1e-16 cGy.

Common Use Cases

  • Reporting extremely low doses in radiation-physics experiments.
  • Calibrating sensitive dosimeters in scientific research.
  • Converting small-scale radiation measurements for medical treatment planning.
  • Evaluating background radiation in space instrumentation.
  • Checking dosimeter readings in medical physics and radiation therapy.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Confirm the context where attogray measurements are relevant before converting.
  • Use the converter for translating very small doses to clinical dose units carefully.
  • Be aware that attogray values represent extremely tiny energy depositions.
  • Apply conversion only when instrumentation sensitivity supports such precision.

Limitations

  • Attogray units measure doses at extremely small scales, which may not be practical for many medical settings.
  • Centigray is more suitable for clinical applications and conventional dose quantification.
  • Conversion precision depends on instrumentation sensitivity and applicable context.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does attogray measure?
Attogray measures extremely small absorbed radiation doses as 10^-18 joule per kilogram, used mainly in scientific and engineering fields.

What is a centigray used for?
Centigray is a clinical unit for radiation dose equal to one hundredth of a gray, commonly applied in radiotherapy and medical treatment planning.

How do I convert attogray to centigray?
Multiply the attogray value by 1e-16 to obtain the equivalent dose in centigray.
