About Microcoulombs per kilogram
The microcoulomb per kilogram (µC/kg) equals 10⁻⁶ C/kg ≈ 3.88 mR. Used in precision ionisation chamber measurements for X-ray beam quality characterisation; national standards laboratories express free-air chamber calibration factors in µC/kg. 1 µC/kg = 10⁻⁶ C/kg = 10⁻³ mC/kg.
About Coulombs per kilogram
The coulomb per kilogram (C/kg) is the SI derived unit of radiation exposure, equal to 1 coulomb of ion charge liberated per kilogram of dry air. It replaced the roentgen in SI. Calibration of clinical X-ray beams with free-air ionisation chambers and parallel-plate chambers yields results in C/kg. 1 C/kg ≈ 3876 R.
