from Section IV - Embryology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 November 2021
With new time-lapse technology and the use of single-step media, embryos may increasingly remain undisturbed in culture during the process of IVF. Is there still a need for embryos to be removed from the incubator before the day of transfer? Is it better for an embryo to be left in single-step media, or is it beneficial to refresh the culture media on day three? With the potential need for assisted hatching prior to biopsy, or movement into fresh culture media, there are clear cases where any embryo may need to be taken out of the incubator. The technology of assisted reproduction may change the exact role of the embryologist, but observation, manipulation and maintenance of the culture environment remain vital.
