Embryoscope time-lapse
Advanced embryo selection is included as standard in our new packages to help improve your pregnancy chances.
Quick Read- EmbryoScope is an advanced time-lapse incubator that allows embryos to develop in a stable environment while being continuously monitored without being removed for inspection.
- The system captures regular images of embryo development, creating a detailed video that helps embryologists assess cell division patterns that aren’t visible through traditional once-a-day checks.
- This extra level of insight helps the team identify embryos with the highest potential for implantation and pregnancy success, supporting more informed embryo selection.
- EmbryoScope is particularly useful for patients who have had previous IVF or ICSI cycles without success, as it provides more detailed information about early embryo development.
- At Manchester Fertility, EmbryoScope is included within IVF treatment packages, meaning patients can benefit from the technology as part of their standard care, where appropriate
EmbryoScope is a revolutionary type of incubator, which helps us choose the best embryo to transfer.
The EmbryoScope produces a time-lapse video of your embryos as they grow undisturbed, giving us highly detailed insight into their development which is not visible through traditional embryo culture methods.
We then use this video to identify which of your embryos have the greatest pregnancy potential.
Should I use Embryoscope in my IVF cycle?
EmbryoScope is a treatment option available to most Manchester Fertility patients, but it may be especially useful if you’ve had previous failed cycles of IVF/ICSI.
ForICSI, eggs go into the Embryoscope straight after injection, on the day of egg collection. For IVF, embryos are placed in the EmbryoScope after we have confirmed fertilisation, the day after egg collection.
