Nuclear radiation is measured using instruments like Geiger counters or scintillation detectors that detect the presence and intensity of ionizing radiation. These devices can detect various types of radiation, including alpha, beta, gamma, and neutron radiation. Measurements are typically reported in units such as sieverts or rem, which quantify the biological effects of radiation exposure.

According to 2010 Step-By-Step Medical Coding - Carol J. Buck -Radiation treatment is delivered in units called megaelectron volts (MeV).A megaelectron volt is a unit of energy. The radiation energy delivered by the machine is measured in megaelectron volts; the energy that is deposited in the patient's tissue is measured in Gray (one Gray = 100 rads; 1 centigray [cGy] = 1 rad). A rad is a radiation-absorbed dose.Where as dosimetry is the calculation of the radiation dose and placement. It is common to have several dosimetry or device changes during a treatment course.
Blood Pressure is measured and reported as a pressure in mm of mercury
The details depend on what type of radiation you are thinking about. Some units that apply to lots of types of radiation include:* Power * Intensity, which is power per unit area * Frequency and wavelength - many types of radiation come in waves.

Area is always reported in square units because a square unit measures the length and width on a square. Square units measure the surface of a square or rectangle.
