Italian term or phrase: millicurie distrutto
simbolo: mcd. Unità di misura della dose di radiazione per esposizione ai raggi x.
1 mcd è la quantità di radiazione emessa da un campione di sostanza radioattiva fino a causarne la diminuzione di attività di 1 mCi.

finora non ho trovato niente di utile cercando millicurie + mcd, neanche in acronymfinder. Grazie mille

Maybe this will help:

\"Millicurie - a dose unit for a radioactive source. It is a measure of atoms decaying over a period of time and defines the amount of radioactivity administered to a patient; 1 mCi is equivalent to 3.7 x 10 ^7 disintegration per second (dps). The new SI unit is the becquerel (Bq), which is equivalent to 1 dps.\"
