Video clips of days-old embryos reveal developing growth that may predict whether they are likely to lead to pregnancy, making them good choices to implant in women undergoing fertility treatment, a study found.
A Stanford University team used a tiny microscope with video to film 242 embryos as they grew. The scientists identified three criteria that they said may forecast with 93 percent accuracy whether an embryo would reach a stage more likely to lead to pregnancy.
