Embryoscope technology is a game-changer in the world of assisted reproductive technologies. It is a cutting-edge incubator that allows continuous, non-invasive monitoring of embryos in an IVF facility. The Embryoscope consists of a little camera device that takes photographs of growing embryos at regular intervals without disturbing them.
How does it work?
Embryos are transferred to an assigned incubator when fertilization occurs during an In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment. They are checked on a regular basis until they are ready to be implanted in the uterus. Embryoscope is a cutting-edge incubator with a built-in camera and microscope. It employs a time-lapse technology to take photographs of the embryos frequently - typically every 10 minutes. These photos are then stitched together to create time-lapse recordings, which allow embryologists to assess their potential for continued growth.
The Embryoscope also has a security system that warns the embryologist if any major modifications occur in the embryos' growth. This function guarantees that any potential concerns are handled as soon as possible, which might boost the likelihood of a successful IVF cycle.
Who should consider embryoscope treatment?
There are particular patient groups who may be advised to try this treatment:
Women who produce multiple embryos during the treatment
Women who experienced failed pregnancies and miscarriages
Advanced maternal age
Repeated implantation failure
Women with low egg quality
Choosing the highest quality embryos
Monitoring early embryo development traits is essential for assessing an embryo's future potential for growth. The information obtained by Embryoscope guarantees that the IVF specialist gets the greatest knowledge available when deciding which embryos to transfer. This is an important aspect in achieving a healthy pregnancy. It is also a decision help tool available that was designed using knowledge on the features of embryos that have been demonstrated high chance of pregnancy.
The benefits of using Embryoscopy time-lapse imaging
Reduced handling: Embryos are frequently extracted from incubators for evaluation and observation in traditional embryo culture processes. This is distressing for the embryos and may impair their growth. Embryoscopy time-lapse imaging, on the other hand, continually monitors the embryos without disturbing them, lowering the chance of injury or disturbance.
Constant monitoring: The embryos are able to be monitored in instantaneously, providing a more complete picture of their growth.
Better embryo selection: This method identifies the most healthy and best-suited embryos for transfer by giving extensive details on the development of each of the embryos. This can significantly boost the likelihood of a successful pregnancy.
Increases rates of implantation and pregnancy: By reducing outside influences, embryos can grow in a more natural and supportive environment, improving the probability of successful implantation and conception.
