    About Sievert

    The sievert (Sv) is the SI unit of equivalent radiation dose, which accounts for the biological effect of ionizing radiation on human tissue.

    Fun Fact: A typical dental X-ray is about 0.005 millisieverts.

    Common uses: radiation safety, medicine, environmental monitoring.

    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.
