Can time-lapse culture combined with artificial intelligence improve ongoing pregnancy rates in fresh transfer cycles of single cleavage stage embryos?

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

With the rapid advancement of time-lapse culture and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for embryo screening, pregnancy rates in assisted reproductive technology (ART) have significantly improved. However, clinical pregnancy rates in fresh cycles remain dependent on the number and type of embryos transferred. The selection of embryos with the highest implantation potential is critical for embryologists and influences transfer strategies in fertility centers. The superiority of AI over traditional morphological scoring for ranking cleavage-stage embryos based on their implantation potential remains controversial.

Methods

This retrospective study analyzed 105 fresh embryo transfer cycles at the Centre for Reproductive Medicine from August 2023 to March 2024, fol
