Embryo Biopsy
Science, Precision, and Hope Begin Here
At Jaiswal Fertility and Laparoscopy Center, we offer advanced Embryo Biopsy services as part of our comprehensive fertility care. This technique involves the precise removal of one or more cells from an embryo, typically on day 5 (blastocyst stage), to analyze for genetic abnormalities. This biopsy allows for Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), improving the chances of successful implantation and a healthy baby. Led by Dr. Uma Jaiswal, our expert embryology team performs this procedure in a State of the art modular IVF Lab with best world class equipment embryology & Andrology Lab with Best-in-Class Medical Equipment
Step By Step Process
Every Step Matters in Genetic Embryo Testing
-
Embryo Cultivation :
Embryos are developed in the lab until the blastocyst stage (day 5), ensuring optimal growth for biopsy without affecting their development. -
Embryo Stabilization :
Embryos are stabilized in a special solution and placed under a microscope with micromanipulation tools for precise and safe biopsy. -
Cell Extraction :
A few trophectoderm cells are gently removed using a laser, minimizing harm to the embryo and preserving its integrity for transfer. -
Genetic Analysis :
The extracted cells are sent to a genetics lab to test for chromosomal abnormalities or inherited conditions, aiding embryo selection. -
Embryo Freezing or Transfer :
After biopsy, embryos are either frozen or selected for immediate transfer, depending on genetic results and the patient’s treatment plan.
