Frequently asked questions

What is this page for?

This page gives a structured overview of the radiation converter category.

Why can't I convert becquerels to grays?

Becquerels measure radioactive activity, while grays measure absorbed dose. These are different physical quantities, so conversions only happen within a compatible family.

What is the difference between absorbed dose and equivalent dose?

Absorbed dose (gray, rad) measures energy deposited per kilogram of tissue. Equivalent dose (sievert, rem) weights that energy by radiation type to estimate biological risk.
