radiation level
Measured radioactive output
Radiation level is the measured intensity of ionizing radiation in a given area or substance, typically expressed in units like sieverts or rems.
The term appears in contexts ranging from nuclear safety to medical imaging to environmental monitoring: Radiation levels near the reactor remain dangerously high.
Background radiation level refers to the naturally occurring radiation present everywhere on Earth.
