    Heart transplantation faces challenges in immune rejection management, including poor donor-recipient matching and reliance on invasive biopsy procedures.

  • 2

    AI technologies, such as 3D-CNNs and machine learning, enhance preoperative matching and identify risk factors for postoperative complications.

  • 3

    Postoperative AI models utilizing non-invasive biomarkers demonstrate high diagnostic accuracy for rejection, potentially reducing unnecessary biopsies.

  • 4

    AI improves the sensitivity of detecting high-grade acute cellular rejection and addresses sample scarcity through advanced image analysis techniques.

  • 5

    Current evidence on AI in heart transplantation is limited by methodological flaws, necessitating future research focused on multi-center validation and standardized reporting.
