Excerpt:
Researchers have captured 3D images of the moment a human embryo implanted itself in a system that simulates the uterine environment, helping scientists build a better understanding of what happens during the implantation process.
It had previously not been possible to observe the implantation process in humans in real time, with traditional methods limited to still images taken at specific moments during the process.
In Australia, almost 109,000 in vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycles were performed in 2022, with the live birth rate per embryo transfer cycle increasing to 29.9% from 27.3% in 2018. The researchers hope that improving the understanding of the implantation process could have a significant impact on fertility rates and the time taken to conceive through assisted reproduction like IVF.
