    Some Ti and Co-based alloys are used for implant purposes in orthopedics. These implants may cause artifacts during imaging in radiology. These may cause image quality to deteriorate due to glare in the relevant area. In the presented study, radiation protection efficiency (RPE), mass attenuation coefficient (mu/rho, MAC), linear attenuation coefficient (mu, LAC), half value layer (HVL), mean free path (MFP), tenth value layer (TVL), effective atomic number (Zeff) at 30-150 keV, energy-absorption build-up factor (EABF) and exposure build-up factor (EBF) at 0.015-15 MeV and kerma relative to air parameters at 0.001-20 MeV were obtained for some Ti and Cobased alloys, which frequently used in orthopedics. Photon interaction parameters were calculated using WinXCOM, MCNP6, PHITS, FLUKA and GEANT4 methods. EABF, EBF and kerma relative to air parameters were investigated theoretically with the help of WinXCOM. In addition, to investigate the neutron interaction parameters of these implants, RPE values at different thicknesses at 4.5 MeV with FLUKA, total macroscopic cross section and mean free path with GEANT4 and effective removal cross section for fast neutron with theory were obtained. Mass attenuation coefficients for the Ti-based alloys and Co-based alloys were determined as in the range from 0.159 cm2 g- 1 to 6.466 cm2 g- 1 and 0.200 cm2 g- 1 to 10.791 cm2 g- 1 in the energy range from 30 keV to 150 keV, respectively. It has been observed that among TiAl6V, Ti6Al7Nb, Grade1, Co28Cr6Mo, Co20Cr15W10Ni and Co35Ni20Cr10Mo implants, Co20Cr15W10Ni has the best attenuation ability for photons and neutrons.
