Timelapse system for continuous embryo monitoring
Special embryo culture device based on the principle of individual culture (each embryo cultured in a special dedicated microwell). The device takes a photo of each embryo every 20-30 minutes and then processes these photos into a video loop. The advantage of such culturing procedure is that it is not necessary to take the embryo out from the incubator during the whole culture process (ensuring stable conditions for the embryo) and the embryologist has the possibility to assess the regularity and time sequence of division in each embryo and then select the embryo providing the highest implant potential for transfer.
