What does 1 decigray represent?

One decigray equals one tenth of a gray, measuring absorbed ionizing radiation dose as energy deposited per unit mass.

When is exagray used?

Exagray expresses extraordinarily large absorbed doses, mainly in theoretical, astrophysical, or high-energy physics contexts.

How can this conversion help in practical applications?

It allows users to compare clinically relevant doses with theoretical or astrophysical doses by converting between very different unit scales.
