Microgray to rad Conversion
1 microgray (µGy) is equal to 0.0001 rad (rad).
1 µGy = 0.0001 rad
or
1 rad = 10000 µGy
Formula
To convert a absorbed dose from microgray (µGy) to rad (rad), divide the absorbed dose in microgray by 10000
a(rad) = a(µGy) / 10000
Examples:
Convert 1000 microgray to rad:
a(rad) = 1000µGy / 10000 = 0.1 rad
