AIVF’s Post

In a new Countercurrent Contribution, RBMO RTS Section Editor, Guido Pennings, argues that embryo-like structures’ time in the spotlight should be dimmed, and  research efforts should be refocused on natural embryos. Pennings addresses two misconceptions that he feels give ELS their prominence: the belief that there is a shortage of research embryos, and the belief that research on ELS will make research on natural embryos redundant. ‘Instead of putting so much effort into developing inferior material such as embryo-like structures’, Pennings says, ‘it would be much more efficient and beneficial to use the material that is available in IVF clinics but is currently being wasted’.

In the realm of embryology, there is zero tolerance for mistakes. Embryologists dedicate a considerable part of their invaluable meticulously evaluating embryos, a process that significantly influences each fertility journey's outcome. As the stakes are high, the pressure on our professionals can be immense, particularly with the inherent human biases and workload. This is where AIVF steps in, utilizing our state-of-the-art EMA AI-Powered software platform to alleviate these challenges and enhance confidence in decision-making. Our EMA platform offers features designed to reduce errors, improve performance, augment efficiency, and increase operational capacity, all crucial for achieving higher success rates in IVF labs and clinics. It allows embryologists to swiftly validate their decisions, mitigating human error and workload-related biases that could potentially affect results. To understand more about human bias in embryo selection, we invite you to visit the link in first comment below. Our platform also includes communication tools aimed at preventing errors, facilitating seamless discussions and decisions among your team. Explore the power of AIVF, transform your operations, and ensure higher success rates.

Exciting news! Christian Kramme, PhD’s participation in the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) expert panel discussing “IVM in all its Glory” sheds light on the latest advancements in assisted reproduction technology. The comparison between IVM and conventional stimulation in hyperresponders promises to offer valuable insights into optimizing fertility treatments. Looking forward to the enlightening discussion on 2/23! 🌟🔬 #ESHRE #AssistedReproduction #IVM #FertilityResearch

In partnership with Presagen, we developed a non-invasive, image-based AI algorithm for combined morphological and genetic assessment of embryo quality in the IVF lab.

Using ImVitro's platform, EMBRYOLY, your IVF center can more easily share detailed information to patients about their treatment on a secure portal, including the videos of their developing embryos if wanted. Patients can also watch short explanatory videos in French, English or Spanish to absorb this information in their own time and at their own pace, and allow centers to focus on the conversations that truly matter with them. See a short teaser below of our first video explaining the embryonic development. Get in touch with us to see how these videos can be personalized to your center! #ivf #ai #embryology

It has been 20 years since Professor Gardner and his team first published on the effects of hyaluronan on preimplantation embryo culture and transfer. Embryo transfer is one of the most sensitive and critical procedures in IVF treatment. EmbryoGlue®, a hyaluronan-rich transfer medium, is designed to promote embryo implantation. “The inclusion of hyaluronan is not only associated with increased embryo development and viability, and there is also a distinct benefit of having hyaluronan in the transfer medium. From every perspective, the inclusion of hyaluronan in both culture and transfer media makes physiological sense, and the data clearly support multiple benefits to the embryo.” Professor David Gardner, Distinguished Professor, School of BioSciences, University of Melbourne and Scientific Director, Melbourne IVF and the inventor of EmbryoGlue Read his blog post where he reflects on the role of this remarkable macromolecule in assisted reproduction: https://hubs.li/Q01Zgph80 #Vitrolife #IVF #VitrolifeGroup #VitrolifeAcademy #Fertilitytreatment #Reproductiveassistance #Embryology #EmbryoGlue

When working with patients who are trying to conceive, we understand how challenging it can be to provide answers and communicate with transparency as mentioned in our recent blog article. "Furthermore, the complex grading system is not easily understood by patients, who want to know the quality of their #embryo for transfer now and in the future." To help your team of experienced #embryologists thoroughly analyze candidate embryos against an organization-wide database of other embryos, our EMA (AI) platform can help. EMA's #AI-automated embryo evaluation, quality scoring and annotations are fully automated replacing manual steps, such as; visual inspections, morphokinetic, and morphological annotations, and manual data recording and transfer into the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems. With this integrated system, all embryo annotations and scores are directly transferred from the time-lapse incubator to the EMR through the EMA platform. This eliminates the need for redundant data recording and transfer between multiple operating systems within the IVF laboratory. This way, the patient can be sure that the score that was provided by EMA is reliable and follows the same steps that were performed by the embryologist, and in the best way possible.

It's intersting to find out that embryologists often rely on cutting-edge technology and imaging techniques to observe and study embryonic development. One of these techniques is called "time-lapse imaging," which involves taking continuous, high-resolution photographs of developing embryos at short intervals. This allows embryologists to monitor the embryo's growth and division patterns without disturbing its environment. What's even more fascinating is that some time-lapse systems use artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze these images and predict which embryos are more likely to develop successfully, potentially improving the success rates of procedures like IVF.
