Gray

Defined as the absorption of one joule of radiation energy per kilogram of matter.

History: Named after Louis Harold Gray, a pioneer in the field of radiobiology. Adopted by the CGPM in 1975.

Current use: The primary international unit used in radiotherapy, radiation protection, and radiobiology.

Also written as Gy, grays.

Microgray

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

History: Standard SI prefix applied to the gray.

Current use: Used for measuring very low levels of absorbed radiation and environmental doses.

Also written as µGy, uGy, micrograys.
