1 cGy = 10,000 µGy

1 µGy = 0.0001 cGy

Example: 1 cGy = 10,000 µGy

One centigray is 0.01 grays.

History: SI prefix centi- applied to the gray.

Current use: Commonly used in radiotherapy because it is exactly equal to one rad.

Also written as cGy.

One microgray is equal to one millionth of a gray (1.0E-6 grays).
