where 𝑤𝑅 <math>w_R</math> is the radiation weighting factor for radiation type R, and 𝐷𝑅<math>D_{R,𝑇 T}</math> is the organ absorbed dose from radiation type R in a tissue or organ 𝑟𝑇 <math>r_T</math> of the Reference Adult Male or the Reference Adult Female. As 𝑤𝑅 <math>w_R</math> is dimensionless, the SI unit for the equivalent dose is the same as for absorbed dose, J kg<sup>-1</sup>, and its special name is sievert (Sv).
