Answer:
Gray (Gy) is the SI unit of absorbed dose index.
Explanation:
- The amount of energy that ionising radiation deposits in matter per unit mass is known as the absorbed dose.
- In both radiology and radiation protection (reduction of negative effects), absorbed dose is used to calculate the dose intake in living tissue (potential beneficial effects for example in cancer treatment).
- It is also used to compare radiation's direct effects on inanimate objects, like radiation hardening.
- The grey (Gy), a SI unit of measurement, is defined as one joule of absorbed energy per kilogramme of mass.
- Unmodified absorbed dose is typically exclusively used in radiation protection to describe the immediate health impacts caused by high acute dose levels.
The SI unit of absorbed dose index is Gray (Gy).
