About These Units

Microrem (μrem)

A microrem (μrem) equals 0.001 mrem or 0.01 μSv. Used for very small doses in sensitive monitoring. One millirem = 1,000 microrem. Rarely used; microsieverts or millirem preferred in practice.

Microroentgen (μR)

A microroentgen (μR) equals 0.001 mR. Used in environmental radiation monitoring, radon measurements, and low-level contamination surveys. Natural background: 10-20 μR/h typical. Sensitive ion chambers measure in μR/h.
