Determining which placentas require histologic examination continues to strain staffing and resources, while histologic interpretation is limited by high interobserver variability and a lack of scalable analytic tools. This review synthesizes current applications and future opportunities for AI in placental pathology across multiple domains, including gross examination, villous maturation, lesion detection, and inflammation. We examine challenges related to data scarcity, reproducibility, and interpretability, and discuss potential solutions such as human\u2010in\u2010the\u2010loop workflows. Recent studies demonstrate strong performance of AI models in automated placental gross image analysis, villous maturation assessment, and lesion detection, with inflammatory lesion analysis and cell classification further highlighting AI's ability to quantify complex, traditionally subjective features. Collectively, these findings show that placental morphology is machine\u2010recognizable and quantifiable. AI\u2010driven placental pathology has the potential to improve diagnostic reproducibility, uncover novel disease mechanisms, and enable earlier prediction of adverse maternal\u2010fetal outcomes. Clinical translation will require addressing dataset diversity, tissue\u2010processing variability, and model interpretability, as well as strategic investment in digital infrastructure, standardization, and interdisciplinary collaboration.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/apm.70219","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,22]],"date-time":"2026-05-22T02:24:21Z","timestamp":1779416661000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Advancing Placental Pathology With Artificial Intelligence: Toward Reproducible and Predictive Diagnostics"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"134","author":[{"given":"Negar","family":"Taheri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology Mass General Brigham, Harvard Medical School  Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sahussapont J.","family":"Sirintrapun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology Mass General Brigham, Harvard Medical School  Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajog.2022.12.017"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5858\/arpa.2015\u20100160\u2010OA"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2350\/09\u201008\u20100692\u2010OA.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jclinpath\u20102020\u2010206845"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41574\u2010020\u20100372\u20106"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.compmedimag.2020.101744"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-031-48593-0_2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41374\u2010021\u201000579\u20105"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0301\u20102115(00)00423\u20101"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajpath.2020.06.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467\u2010024\u201046986\u20102"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.placenta.2023.03.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/aji.13944"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.placenta.2025.04.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598\u2010017\u201017204\u20105"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.csbj.2021.01.022"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3233\/SHTI250279"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-662-56537-7_81"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PAP.0000000000000265"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"I.Irmakci R.Nateghi R.Zhou et\u00a0al.
