About this tool
The absorbed radiation dose is the energy absorbed per kilogram of matter, measured in grays; older sources use rads.
Here every value is converted through the gray (Gy). Choose any two of the 5 units below the converter, or start from one of the popular conversions.
Calculated in your browser – nothing you type is sent anywhere.
