rad to decigray
Please provide values below to convert rad [rd] to decigray [dGy], or change ↔.
rad [rd]
Definition: A unit used to measure the absorbed dose of radiation, indicating the energy deposited per unit mass of tissue.
Historyandorigin: The rad (radiation absorbed dose) was introduced in the 1950s and was the standard unit for absorbed dose until the adoption of the gray (Gy).
CurrentUse: Though largely replaced by the gray, the rad is still occasionally used in certain contexts, especially in older literature.
funfact: One rad equals 0.01 gray (Gy), a unit now used more widely for measuring radiation exposure!
decigray [dGy]
Definition: A unit of radiation dose equal to 0.1 grays.
Historyandorigin: The decigray represents smaller doses of radiation and is used in radiation therapy and low-dose applications.
CurrentUse: Used for precise medical treatments where low-level radiation doses are required.
funfact: Decigrays are valuable in scenarios where lower doses of radiation are being applied to a patient or environment!

How to Convert rad to decigray
1 rad [rd] = 0.1 decigray [dGy]
1 decigray [dGy] = 10 rad [rd]
we use cross multiplication method
rad [rd] → decigray [dGy]
1 → 0.1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.1=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.15
