Centigray is a radiation absorbed dose measurement unit. A centigray (cGy) is a derived metric (SI) measurement unit of absorbed radiation dose of ionizing radiation, e.g. X-rays. The SI prefix centi stands for one hunfredths.
In the interests of standardising health-related units of measure used in the nuclear industry, the 12th CGPM (1964) accepted the continued use of the curie (symbol Ci) as a non-SI unit of activity for radionuclides; the becquerel, sievert and gray were adopted in later years.
