Selecting the embryo with the greatest potential is one of the most critical elements in IVF treatment. Caremaps-AI® leverages time-lapse imaging techniques, powered by artificial intelligence, to assist embryologists in choosing the embryo with the most potential without the need for genetic testing. To capture images of the embryos, Reach uses the Embryoscope time lapse incubator, made by Vitrolife. The device has an integrated camera system that takes images in up to 11 focal planes, every 10 minutes, from the moment of fertilization to the time the embryo is ready for transfer or ready to be cryogenically stored. These images combined with AI analysis, remove human subjectivity from embryo assessment and allow embryologists to select the embryo with the highest chance of becoming a healthy baby.
