  • Title: [The new radiologic units of measurement gray and becqerel (author's transl)].
    Author: Harder D.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1976 Jan; 29(1):49-52. PubMed ID: 1251122.
    Abstract:
    The general conference on weights and measures in June 1975 introduced the new names of units, the Gray (for ionizing radiations) and the Becqerel (for activity of a radioactive substance), on an international level. The reasons for this change--the units hitherto valid are the Rad and the Curie--and the international efforts at durability of the new regulations are reported.
