About the Book

In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is a procedure practised worldwide, with patients and practitioners expecting higher live birth rates and excellent standards of quality as methodologies become more established. This practical book covers every stage in the life of an IVF laboratory, from designing and planning the laboratory to training the embryologists and ongoing management and troubleshooting, providing step-by-step protocols for today's best practice. Chapters follow the same structure, allowing readers to translate complex and specialized procedures into a standard workflow. Several new chapters are included in this second edition, including descriptions of the protocol for piezo-ICSI, safe and effective cryostorage of embryos, and how to manage emergency situations in the IVF laboratory. Written by an international team of experts, this is an exemplary portfolio of techniques, providing a good foundation of working practice for both new and experienced embryologists.
