Conversion from mCi to SV and Vice Versa

[php]

hi,
any conversion from mCi to SV and vise versa?

hi,

You mean, for internal contamination ?

1 mCi = 37e6 Bq and then you need to use the radiotoxicity of the isotope in question to convert this in an engaged dose. The radiotoxicity is the amount of Sv per Bq, and varies for actinides from something like 1e-8 to 1e-12 or so for weak beta emitters.

Yes, there is a conversion between mCi (millicurie) and SV (Sievert) as they are both units of measurement for radiation. The conversion factor is 1 mCi = 37 mSv. So, to convert from mCi to SV, you would multiply the value in mCi by 37. And to convert from SV to mCi, you would divide the value in SV by 37. It's important to note that these conversions are only applicable for specific types of radiation and may vary depending on the source. It's always best to consult a professional for accurate conversions in your specific situation.
