La grandeur physique qui permet de quantifier l'interaction d'un rayonnement avec la matière est la dose absorbée. La dose absorbée en un point est le quotient entre l'énergie absorbée en un volume élémentaire centré par ce point et la masse de ce volume élémentaire. Elle s'exprime en Gray. 1 Gray est égal à 1 Joule (unité d'énergie) déposé dans 1 kilogramme de matière. 2, record 1, French, - indice%20de%20dose%20absorb%C3%A9e%20en%20un%20point
