Purposes: To evaluate whether the auto-planning (AP) module can achieve clinically acceptable treatment plans for lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and to evaluate the effectiveness of a dose prediction model.  Methods: Twenty lung SBRT cases planned manually with 50 Gy in five fractions were replanned using the Pinnacle (Philips Radiation Oncology Systems, Fitchburg, WI) AP module according to the dose constraint tables from the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 0813 protocol. Doses to the organs at risk (OAR) were compared between the manual and AP plans. Using a dose prediction model from a commercial product, PlanIQ (Sun Nuclear Corporation, Melbourne, FL), we also compared OAR doses from AP plans with predicted doses.  Results: All manual and AP plans achieved clinically required dose coverage to the target volumes. The AP plans achieved equal or better OAR sparing when compared to the manual plans, most noticeable in the maximum doses of the spinal cord, ipsilateral brachial plexus, esophagus, and trachea. Predicted doses to the heart, esophagus, and trachea were highly correlated with the doses of these OARs from the AP plans with the highest correlation coefficient of 0.911, 0.823, and 0.803, respectively.  Conclusion: Auto-planning for lung SBRT improved OAR sparing while keeping the same dose coverage to the tumor. The dose prediction model can provide useful planning dose guidance.
