Convert between absorbed dose units (gray, milligray, microgray, centigray, kilogray, J/kg, rad, millirad, erg/g) and equivalent dose units (sievert, millisievert, microsievert, nanosievert, rem, millirem, microrem) in two separate tabs. Includes real-world reference values for natural background radiation, medical imaging doses, occupational limits (NRC/ICRP), and radiation therapy. Adjustable significant figures, scientific notation toggle, and one-click copy.
