Sievert
About
Initially, A refined measurement that adjusts the absorbed dose by accounting for the varied biological effects of different radiation types.
Historical Background
Throughout history, Honoring Rolf Sievert’s contributions to radiobiology, this unit was developed to better correlate exposure with potential health outcomes. Subsequently, this helped establish its widespread use.
Modern Applications
Today, Essential in radiation protection, it is used to estimate the risk associated with both occupational and environmental exposures. Moreover, it continues to serve essential measurement needs.
Gray
About
Primarily, A unit that quantifies the energy deposited by ionizing radiation in a given mass, where each joule per kilogram equates to one gray.
Historical Background
Over time, Named after Louis Harold Gray, this unit was introduced to provide a direct measure of absorbed dose based on energy per unit mass. As a result, it became a standard measurement unit.
Modern Applications
Currently, Widely applied in radiation therapy and protective monitoring to precisely assess energy absorption in tissues. Furthermore, its use continues to expand in various fields.
