About this conversion
Rad and Microgray are units used in the radiation family of measurements. Both units measure absorbed radiation dose (energy deposited per unit mass). This converter uses the precise relationship 1 Rad = 10000 Micrograys (equivalently 1 Microgray = 1e-4 Rads), so results stay accurate for nuclear medicine, radiation safety, health physics, and scientific research.
