- This conversion only measures radioactive activity, not absorbed dose or biological effects.
- Applicable solely to activity units and not for comprehensive radiation safety assessments.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does disintegrations per second measure?
- Disintegrations per second quantify the number of radioactive decays occurring each second and represent the activity of a radioactive sample, equal to one becquerel.
- Why convert disintegrations/second to millicurie?
- Converting to millicurie simplifies expressing and communicating radioactive activities in nuclear medicine and radiation measurement contexts where millicurie is commonly used.
- Is millicurie an SI unit?
- No, millicurie is a non-SI unit used to quantify radioactive activity and should be used carefully in strict SI environments.
Key Terminology
- Disintegrations per second
- Unit measuring the number of nuclear decays per second, equal to one becquerel.
- Millicurie [mCi]
- A non-SI unit of radioactive activity equal to one-thousandth of a curie, corresponding to 3.7×10^7 disintegrations per second.
- Radioactive activity
- The rate at which nuclear decays occur in a radioactive substance.
