A Brief Review of Artificial Intelligence in Living Kidney Donation

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, and the field of kidney transplantation (KT) is no exception. While much of the AI-related work has focused on deceased donor KT, there is a growing body of research applying AI tools to living kidney donation (LKD). This review explores AI's current and potential roles in LKD, focusing on predictive and social applications of AI in LKD. Additionally, we discuss the challenges and limitations of implementing AI in clinical settings and highlight emerging research trends. This review consolidates existing research and provides a foundation for both transplant professionals and data scientists seeking to integrate AI responsibly into living donor programs.
