RADIATION UNITS AND EQUIVALENTS* ROENTGEN (R). —The exposure (x-rays or γ-rays) causing in 1 cc. of air, under standard conditions, production of positive and negative ions, either kind of them having altogether the charge of one electrostatic unit. The roentgen is a purely physical unit and has no direct relation to absorption or biological effect of radiation. ROENTGEN EQUIVALENT PHYSICAL (REP). —Obsolete. Exposures of any kind of radiation resulting in ionization equivalent to 83 ergs per gram of air or 93 ergs per gram of tissue. RADIATION ABSORBED DOSE (RAD). —The radiation energy absorbed by a small volume of tissue divided by this volume. Its unit is |
