Our New and Improved EmbryoScope+ Is the Latest Technology to Assist in Our Patients’ Success
The PreciousEggs laboratory has welcomed the addition of two new EmbryoScope+ time-lapse incubators, the latest state-of-the-art technology that enhances IVF success for our patients. The EmbryoScope+ is a combination incubator, time-lapse camera and microscope that helps our embryologists select the embryo for transfer with the highest chance of resulting in a successful pregnancy during the IVF process. The original EmbryoScope made its debut at PreciousEggs in 2013 and this new model provides even more insight into an embryo’s development.
This novel technology creates a stable culture environment for the embryos and continuous observation. A photo of the embryo is taken every 10 minutes which creates a video that shows its growth during its time in the incubator. Without time-lapse, embryos must be taken out of the incubator to be assessed, exposing them to unnecessary stress and fluctuations.
Stacy Carney, BA, TS (ABB) - Director of Laboratory Services
“We are thrilled to go to the next level and offer the cutting-edge technology of Embryoscope+ to our patients. It helps optimize the embryo selection process and provides our laboratory team with the full picture of an embryo’s development rather than just snapshots at key points.”
EmbryoScope+ time-lapse technology, when used in combination with preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A), is a powerful tool in the decision-making process. This is why our IVF For ME (Maximal Efficiency) program now includes PGT-A and the use of EmbryoScope+ to monitor embryo development from its first cells.
Ronald Feinberg, MD, PhD – Medical Director of IVF Programs
“This technology strongly complements our commitment to single embryo transfer at the blastocyst stage. At PreciousEggs, we have consistently maintained one of the highest SET rates in the country because it is the safest and most effective way to attain a healthy pregnancy through IVF. We are constantly searching for ways to improve pregnancy success rates while maintaining healthy outcomes for our patients.”
Additionally, EmbryoScope+ utilizes software that has gathered information from thousands of IVF cycles performed worldwide. This creates an artificial intelligence algorithm from the morphokinetic data that will soon identify development patterns most likely to yield a successful result for our patients, which is our ultimate goal.
