Metabolic imaging via fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy for egg and embryo assessment

Metabolic imaging via fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy for egg and embryo assessment
Current strategies for embryo assessment in the assisted reproductive technology laboratories rely primarily on morphologic parameters that have limited accuracy for determining embryo viability. Even with the addition of invasive diagnostic interventions such as preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy alone or in combination with mitochondrial DNA copy number assessment, at least one third of embryos fail to implant. Therefore, at a time when the clinical benefits of single ET are widely accepted, improving viability assessment of embryos is ever more important.
