Tips & Best Practices

Use exagray for order-of-magnitude or theoretical studies due to its enormous scale.
Prefer megagray for practical severe radiation damage or experimental testing scenarios.
Always double-check unit selections to ensure correct conversions.
Be aware that these units represent extremely large doses and are not typical for routine measurements.

Limitations

Exagray is rarely used in practical applications and mainly applies to theoretical or very large scale studies.
Megagray, although large, is more common but still represents doses beyond normal measurement ranges.
Neither unit is suitable for typical everyday radiation dosage contexts.
