Laboratory methods
The success of IVF varies from couple to couple and depends on many factors, such as age or genetics. IVF is not always successful on the first try. To avoid disappointment, some of the following methods will help increase your chances of a successful pregnancy.
Laboratory methods and genetics
ICSI
ICSI is the injection of sperm directly into an egg. This significantly increases the chance of fertilisation.
More information
EmbryoScope
We can increase the chances of pregnancy by selecting only the best quality embryos for transfer. We can identify these through continuous monitoring in EmbryoScope.
More information
PESA/MESA/TESE
In the absence of live sperm in the ejaculate, there is the possibility of obtaining sperm surgically from the epididymis (PESA or MESA) or testis (TESE).
More information
EmbryoGen / BlastGen
EmbryoGen and BlastGen are sequential culture media meticulously engineered to closely emulate the natural developmental progression of embryos.
More information
Assisted hatching
This method is used to disrupt the protective envelope (outer shell) of the embryo in order to make it easier to implant (nest) in the uterus.
More information
PGT
Testing the genetic makeup of embryos before transfer to the uterus reduces the risk of birth defects.
More information
EmbryoGlue®
A medium enriched with hyaluronan that promotes embryo implantation in the patient's uterus. This method demonstrably increases the chances of pregnancy by up to 7%.
More information
Vitrification
A method of rapidly freezing embryos or eggs that prevents the formation of ice crystals and thereby cell damage. This increases the chances of successful thawing.
More information
Microfluidic sperm sorting chips
The best quality sperm are selected naturally using this method. Active passage through a micro-barrier separates healthy sperm from poor quality sperm.
More information Visualisation of the mitotic spindle
This method allows the right timing of fertilisation of the egg and accurate location of the mitotic spindle to avoid damage to it.
More information Halosperm
Halosperm allows quick and easy sperm DNA fragmentation tests. Healthy sperm are key to successful IVF treatment.
