In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

Enhancing IVF Laboratory Success: A Commitment to Precision and Quality

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is one of several assisted reproductive techniques (ART) performed to treat infertility, and assist infertile couples to have a child. IVF is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm outside the body, in vitro ("in glass"). The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman's ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova (egg or eggs) from the woman's ovaries and letting sperm fertilize them in a liquid in a laboratory. After the fertilized egg (zygote) undergoes embryo culture for 2–6 days, it is implanted in the same or another woman's uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy.
Analis, together with its partners, offers local support and expertise in state-of-the art equipment developed to support the actual and future needs of IVF laboratories.

In-Vitro fertilization process procedure IVF

In-vitro fertilization (IVF) as a fertility treatment

IVF is a process of fertilizing an egg with a sperm outside the body, and then transferring the embryo into the uterus. IVF can help people who have difficulty conceiving naturally, such as those with blocked fallopian tubes, low sperm count, or genetic disorders. IVF has some risks and side effects, such as multiple pregnancies, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, or ectopic pregnancy. IVF also involves ethical and emotional issues, such as the disposal of unused embryos, the cost of treatment, or the psychological stress of the procedure.

Accurate evaluation of embryo viability is crucial for optimizing IVF treatments and increasing pregnancy rates. Usually, embryologists depend on non-invasive visual evaluations of embryos or oocytes. This assessment emphasizes characteristics like morphology and dynamic development, particularly during the blastocyst stage. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective, leading to variability between different observers and even within the same observer, influenced by factors such as embryo scoring systems and the embryologists experience and expertise, ultimately affecting the final success rate. Moreover, the transfer of multiple embryos per cycle, while potentially increasing the success rate, raises the risk of complications like pre-eclampsia and maternal haemorrhage, as well as the likelihood of multiple pregnancies.

The integration of AI with automated morphological analysis of embryos or blastocysts presents an enticing solution. In 2012, Santos Filho and colleagues presented a semi-automated grading technique. This method involved tasks such as image segmentation and classification specifically applied to human blastocyst images. The researchers employed SVM classifiers to evaluate the inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) quality. Through an analysis of fractal dimensions and mean thickness in TE and ICM image textures, they successfully characterized the crucial morphological attributes of the blastocyst. Additionally, optimizing microscope settings, such as enhancing contrast and delineating individual features more distinctly, may further refine image analysis.
