Artificial intelligence in nephrology: revolutionizing diagnosis, treatment, and patient care

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the landscape of nephrology, offering innovative solutions that enhance diagnosis, treatment, and patient care. This literature review explores the current and potential applications of AI across various domains within nephrology. We discuss AI-driven advancements in early diagnosis, personalized treatment planning, renal replacement therapy, and transplant nephrology. Furthermore, we examine how AI enhances patient care through remote monitoring, telehealth, and virtual assistants. While the promise of AI is immense, this review also addresses the ethical, regulatory, and technical challenges that accompany its integration into clinical practice. By highlighting the transformative potential of AI in nephrology, we underscore the need for continued research and collaboration to fully realize its benefits in improving kidney health outcomes.
