Time lapse video & Embryo development

TIME

Advances in equipment to monitor embryos using low levels of light not harmful to pre-implantation embryos are now being increasing used in the IVF lab.
These innovations give:
-a real time image of the developing embryo inside the IVF incubator.
- an accurate account of cellular and development events rarely followed
-improved assessment of embryos for embryo transfer
-capability of mathematical analysis of embryos using special software
-remote monitoring of embryos from outside the lab, such as the embryologists office or smart phone
-no electromagnetic interference

time-lapse

 

“This means we can follow the growing embryo any time and from anywhere. Decisions regarding the best embryo(s) for embryo transfer relied on the embryologist removing the embryos from the incubator to view them with the use of a microscope now , we need not rely on a single observation; we can follow their development and  access which have the better implantation potential".
