Artificial intelligence and extended reality in TAVR: current applications and challenges.

Integration of AI and XR in TAVR is revolutionizing the management of severe aortic stenosis by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, risk stratification, and pre-procedural planning. Advanced algorithms now facilitate precise electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, and CT-based assessments that reduce observer variability and enable patient-specific risk prediction. Immersive XR technologies, including augmented, virtual, and mixed reality, improve spatial visualization of complex cardiac anatomy and support real-time procedural guidance. Despite these advancements, standardized protocols, regulatory frameworks, and ethical safeguards remain necessary for widespread clinical adoption.
