Study Shows Time-lapse Imaging for Choosing Embryos in IVF Does Not Increase Chances of Live Birth

Study finds that time-lapse imaging does not improve IVF outcomes, challenging its use in fertility treatment.

• A randomized controlled trial found that time-lapse imaging (TLI) does not improve in-vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes.
• TLI involves taking continuous images of embryos as they grow during IVF treatment.
• The double-blind trial involving over 1,500 participants in the UK and Hong Kong showed similar live birth rates across different embryo selection methods.
• The study suggests that TLI may not be essential equipment in IVF labs, especially for those with limited resources.
• The findings indicate that investing in equipment with a direct impact on live birth rates may be more beneficial in IVF treatments.
