How to use Radiation Unit Converter

  1. Enter a nonnegative value.
  2. Choose two units for the same physical quantity.
  3. Calculate and review the quantity and converted value.

Example: Radiation Unit Converter

1 Ci to Bq

You add
1 Ci to Bq
You get
1 Ci equals 37,000,000,000 Bq.

Options

From unit and To unit
Units are grouped by activity, absorbed dose, equivalent dose or exposure. Convert within the same group; the page refuses crossing between different radiation quantities.

Supported inputs and limits

Activity, absorbed dose, dose equivalent and exposure remain separate quantities. Nonnegative values from 10^-30 to 10^30, plus zero; up to 20 significant result digits. No activity-to-dose, Gy-to-Sv, dose-rate or safety interpretation. Factors follow the cited NIST reference; entered units must describe the same quantity.

Activity is a decay rate

A becquerel represents one disintegration per second; a curie is 37,000,000,000 Bq. This converts a supplied activity unit without measuring a source or estimating exposure.

Dose quantities cannot be joined by a unit factor

Gray, sievert and activity units describe different quantities. Converting absorbed dose to equivalent dose or source activity to a dose requires additional physical information outside this tool. Its result is not a safety assessment, medical interpretation or personal exposure advice.

Questions about Radiation Unit Converter

Can gray be converted directly to sievert?

No. They represent different quantities and require information beyond a fixed unit factor.

Does a result say whether an exposure is safe?

No. It converts units only and gives no exposure or treatment recommendation.

Can I convert curie into an absorbed dose?

No. Activity and absorbed dose are separate physical quantities.
