STUDY QUESTION: Can a quantitative method be developed to differentiate between blastocysts with similar or same inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) grades, while also reflecting their potential for live birth?
In recent years, the transfer of more than one embryo has become less frequent to diminish multiple pregnancies. Even so, there is still a risk of one embryo splitting into two or even three. This report presents the case of a triamniotic monochorion...
STUDY QUESTION: How can we best achieve tissue segmentation and cell counting of multichannel-stained endometriosis sections to understand tissue composition?
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to standardize and automate important aspects of fertility treatment, improving clinical outcomes. One promising application of AI in the fertility clinic is the use of machine learning (ML) tools to ass...
Grading of blastocyst morphology is used routinely for embryo selection with good outcomes. A lot of effort has been placed in IVF to search for the prize of selecting the most viable embryo to transfer ('the golden fleece of embryology'). To improve...
STUDY QUESTION: Can more reliable time cut-offs of embryo developmental incompetence be generated by combining time-lapse technology (TLT), artificial intelligence, and preimplantation genetics screening for aneuploidy (PGT-A)?
Quality healthcare requires two critical components: patients' best interests and best decisions to achieve that goal. The first goal is the lodestar, unchanged and unchanging over time. The second component is a more dynamic and rapidly changing par...
STUDY QUESTION: Can the BlastAssist deep learning pipeline perform comparably to or outperform human experts and embryologists at measuring interpretable, clinically relevant features of human embryos in IVF?
The internet is the primary source of infertility-related information for most people who are experiencing fertility issues. Although no longer shrouded in stigma, the privacy of interacting only with a computer provides a sense of safety when engagi...
