Use of time-lapse technology on fertilization verification, embryo evaluation, and utilization: A national survey in Japan.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Time-lapse technology (TLT) has emerged as a significant advancement in the field of assisted reproductive technology (ART), providing continuous observation of embryos. However, limited information exists on the adoption of TLT across ART facilities and the clinical implications of its application in embryo evaluation and fertilization verification. The existing literature has not yet comprehensively examined how TLT data are utilized to optimize ART outcomes, particularly in Japan, where ART practices are highly prevalent.

Objectives

This study aimed to investigate the adoption rate of TLT and its clinical effects on fertilization verification, embryo evaluation, and utilization of ART in Japan.

Study design

An online survey was conducted from December 23
