In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

In current treatments for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), the creation of multiple embryos is a common practice. The decision to transfer an embryo is traditionally based on the morphological assessment by an embryologist, which, due to its nature, must be considered subjective. In certain regions, invasive embryo biopsy techniques, such as Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A), are used to detect chromosomal abnormalities and support decision-making regarding embryo transfer. However, there is a medical need to improve the outcomes of IVF/ICSI cycles through non-invasive and objective methods. As an academic center, our goal is to investigate promising innovative methods that, if successful, can be integrated into standard care. The aim of the Aurora blastocyst study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Aurora test in select
