How to Convert Rad to Millirad
To convert from Rad (rad) to Millirad (mrad), multiply the value by 1,000.
Formula: mrad = rad × 1,000
Reverse: rad = mrad × 0.001
Step-by-Step Example
- Start with your value in Rad. For example: 5 rad
- Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 1,000
- The result is: 5,000 mrad
About Rad
The rad is a non-SI unit of absorbed radiation dose. One rad is equal to 0.01 gray.
Common uses: legacy radiation monitoring, industrial radiation.
About Millirad
The millirad (mrad) is a unit of radiation dose. One millirad equals 1.000000 × 10^-5 grays. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other radiation unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.
Common uses: radiation calculations, engineering and science, education.
