By definition, 1 Gy = 100 rad and 1 Sv = 100 rem. The fundamental quantity is the absorbed dose ( D ), which is defined as the mean energy imparted [by ionising radiation] (dE) per unit mass (dm) of material (D = dE/dm) [ 8 ] The SI unit of absorbed dose is the gray (Gy) defined as one joule per kilogram.
