What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms radiation absorbed dose measurements from milligray (mGy), which quantifies very small radiation energy absorbed per mass, into decigray (dGy), a unit better suited for intermediate values in clinical and therapeutic contexts.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the radiation dose value in milligray (mGy)
- Select 'milligray (mGy)' as the input unit and 'decigray (dGy)' as the output unit
- Click the convert button to see the corresponding decigray value
- Review examples to verify conversion accuracy
- Apply converted values for clinical or quality assurance use
Key Features
- Simple conversion from milligray (mGy) to decigray (dGy)
- Useful for medical imaging and radiotherapy dose translations
- Supports quality assurance and clinical dose reporting
- Browser-based with no installation required
- Displays conversion examples for easy understanding
Examples
- 50 mGy equals 0.5 dGy
- 200 mGy converts to 2 dGy
Common Use Cases
- Reporting patient radiation doses from diagnostic imaging procedures
- Defining radiotherapy fraction doses and treatment increments
- Calibrating dosimeters and verifying radiation detector performance
- Recording intermediate absorbed doses with greater granularity than gray units
- Ensuring regulatory compliance in clinical and occupational settings
Tips & Best Practices
- Use milligray for measuring smaller radiation doses in diagnostic contexts
- Apply decigray units when intermediate granularity is necessary for therapy planning
- Double-check converted values for dose reporting to avoid rounding errors
- Use consistent units across patient records and quality assurance reports
- Understand the measurement context to select appropriate dose units
Limitations
- Milligray suits smaller dose levels, while decigray fits intermediate ranges better
- Converting very small or very large doses might introduce precision challenges
- Avoid rounding errors when reporting doses for regulatory compliance
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the relationship between milligray and decigray?
- One milligray equals 0.01 decigray, meaning the decigray is a larger unit representing one-tenth of a gray, while milligray is one-thousandth of a gray.
- When should I use decigray instead of milligray?
- Decigray is ideal for intermediate dose measurements such as radiotherapy dosage and quality assurance, where finer granularity than the gray is required.
- Is this converter suitable for all radiation dose measurements?
- This converter is appropriate for medical imaging, radiotherapy, and radiation protection dose values but may have precision considerations for very small or large doses.
Key Terminology
- Milligray (mGy)
- A unit of absorbed radiation dose equal to one-thousandth of a gray; measures energy deposited per kilogram.
- Decigray (dGy)
- A unit of absorbed radiation dose equal to one-tenth of a gray, used for intermediate dose levels in clinical contexts.
- Gray (Gy)
- The SI unit of absorbed ionizing radiation dose, representing one joule of energy per kilogram of material.
