In this study, we have estimated error of calculation results for 5-type RTP systems and investigated a toleration for error of the RTPs referenced from the evaluation items of AAPM Report-62. For this study, we have introduced the concept of 'normal dose rate(NDR)' and compared the results of experiment and calculation from RTPs at the same reference level. The results from all RTPs were satisfied at various field shapes and heterogeneous phantom materials except the surface irregularity.
