where <math>D_{R,T}</math> is the mean absorbed dose from radiation R in a tissue or organ <math>T</math>, and <math>w_R</math> is the radiation weighting factor. The SI unit of equivalent dose is joule per kilogram (J kg<sup>-1</sup>), and its special name is sievert (Sv).

where <math>w_R</math> is the radiation weighting factor for radiation type <math>R</math>, and <math>D_{R,T}</math> is the organ absorbed dose from radiation type <math>R </math> in a tissue or organ <math>r_T</math> of the Reference Adult Male or the Reference Adult Female. As <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).
