About this conversion
Sievert and Gigagray are units used in the radiation family of measurements. Sievert measures equivalent radiation dose (biological risk-weighted dose), while Gigagray measures absorbed radiation dose (energy deposited per unit mass). This page provides the direct numeric ratio between the two units. This converter uses the precise relationship 1 Sievert = 1e-9 Gigagrays (equivalently 1 Gigagray = 1e+9 Sieverts), so results stay accurate for nuclear medicine, radiation safety, health physics, and scientific research.
