Picograys (pGy)
Megarads (Mrad)

Conversion Formula

Mrad = pGy × 1.000000000e-16

About Picograys

The picogray (pGy) equals 10⁻¹² Gy. Microdosimetry simulations of α-particle traversals through single cells report mean specific energies in the pGy range; computed dose kernels for ²¹⁰At and !21³Bi targeted alpha therapy on individual cell clusters are expressed in pGy. 1 pGy = 10⁻¹² Gy = 10⁻³ nGy.

About Megarads

The megarad (Mrad) equals 10⁶ rad = 10⁴ Gy. Used in radiation hardening of electronics and wire/cable insulation: cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cable insulation is cured at 5-20 Mrad; some legacy radiation hardness assurance (RHA) test reports for space electronics quote doses in Mrad(Si). 1 Mrad = 10⁴ Gy = 10 kGy.
