Abstract
In present study, water phantom performances of using 6 and 18 MV photon beams were investigated. For this purpose, several data obtained form percent depth dose graphics and dose profiles were compared to each other. It was determined that the differences between the values were generally found within the limits. In the end of study, it was seen that semiconductor diodes and cylindrical ion chambers can be used interchangeably. But, there are some dozimetric differences between both detectors because of different detector structures. Choice of the detector can be made by taking into account these differences.
