Radiation Units
Exposure
- is a measure of quantity of ionisation, produced in air, by x-ray, or gamma radiation per unit mass
- SI unit is the Coulomb per kg (C/kg)
Absorbed dose
- is a measure of the amount of energy imparted to matter by ionising radiation per unit mass of irradiated material
- SI unit is the Gray(Gy)
Dose equivalent
