What Is This Tool?
This converter allows users to change radiation absorbed dose values from centigray (cGy) to hectogray (hGy). It supports medical and industrial contexts by providing a clear way to express doses on different scales.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the radiation dose value in centigray (cGy)
- Select centigray as the starting unit and hectogray as the target unit
- Click the convert button to view the corresponding value in hectogray
- Use the provided formula and examples to verify results
Key Features
- Converts absorbed radiation dose units between centigray and hectogray accurately
- Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required
- Suitable for medical, industrial, and scientific dose conversions
- Provides clear conversion rates and formulas for reference
Examples
- 100 cGy equals 0.01 hGy
- 500 cGy equals 0.05 hGy
Common Use Cases
- Expressing absorbed doses in radiotherapy or nuclear medicine planning
- Calibration and testing of therapeutic radiation beams in medical physics
- Reporting high-dose levels in industrial radiation processing and sterilization
- Radiation-hardness testing for electronics and material analysis
- Documenting large absorbed doses in dosimetry laboratory calibrations
Tips & Best Practices
- Use centigray for typical medical dose prescriptions requiring smaller units
- Apply hectogray for high-dose industrial or research measurements
- Verify conversions with examples and formulas to avoid errors
- Be mindful of decimal places when converting very small doses to hectogray
Limitations
- Hectogray units may produce impractical decimal precision for very small doses
- Centigray is preferred in clinical settings for typical dose prescriptions
- Hectogray is mostly relevant for high-dose industrial or research scenarios
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the centigray unit used for?
- Centigray is used to measure absorbed ionizing radiation doses typically in medical fields like radiotherapy and nuclear medicine.
- When should I use hectogray instead of centigray?
- Hectogray is appropriate for very high absorbed doses found in industrial radiation processing, radiation-hardness testing, or dosimetry laboratory calibrations.
- How do I convert centigray to hectogray?
- Multiply the value in centigray by 0.0001 to get the equivalent absorbed dose in hectogray.
Key Terminology
- Centigray (cGy)
- A unit of absorbed radiation dose equal to one hundredth of a gray, commonly used in medical radiation dosing.
- Hectogray (hGy)
- An SI-derived unit representing 100 grays, used mainly for expressing very large doses in industrial and research contexts.
- Gray (Gy)
- The SI unit of absorbed radiation dose defined as one joule of energy absorbed per kilogram of matter.
