Embryoscopy instead of PGD

Scientists have proposed a new method of detecting chromosomal defects in embryos during IVF, which can be an alternative to PGD.

One of the reasons for the failure of IVF is aneuploidy - an abnormal number of chromosomes. Externally embryos with aneuploidy are no different from normal, but in most cases when they are transferred into the uterus the pregnancy does not occur.

This pathology of embryos can be identified using preimplantation genetic diagnosis - but in many countries the use of PGD is limited, and in some - prohibited.

A new method for detection of aneuploidy in embryos - using embryoscopy - introduced a team of British experts led by embryologist Alison Campbell from the Center for Reproductive Medicine CARE Fertility Group in Nottingham.
