Rad (Traditional Radiation Unit)

Introduction : The rad was the original unit of absorbed radiation dose, still used in some countries. One rad equals 0.01 gray, representing 100 ergs of energy per gram.

History & Origin : Developed in the early 20th century as radiation science progressed. The term 'rad' originally stood for 'radiation absorbed dose' before being replaced by the gray.

Current Use : Common in older radiation equipment and some US medical applications. Still referenced in radiation protection standards and historical dose measurements.

Microgray (Ultra-Low Dose Unit)

Introduction : One millionth of a gray, used for measuring very small radiation doses in sensitive applications.

History & Origin : Became relevant as radiation detection technology advanced to measure increasingly smaller doses accurately.

Current Use : Used in environmental monitoring, ultra-low-dose research, and measuring natural background radiation variations.
