Navigating microscope challenges in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) laboratories
1. Are inefficiencies in your lab's microscopy workflow affecting the productivity of your IVF procedures?
2. Do you find the documentation process of sperm analysis overly time-consuming and cumbersome?
3. Is a lack of real-time information about oocyte retrieval impacting patient communication and satisfaction?
4. Are you struggling with visualizing spindle detail in oocytes due to your choice of contrasting technique?
5. Do poor imaging capabilities slow your ability to accurately assess sperm morphology during ART procedures?
Unmatched optical quality for embryologists
Best-in-class optics
ZEISS microscopes are renowned for their superior optical quality, providing exceptionally clear and detailed images. This high level of clarity is critical for the accurate assessment of sperm and oocytes, enabling IVF professionals to make more informed decisions.
Use multiple contrasting techniques
On one Microscope
Successful ART laboratories have fine-tuned their processes to improve success rates. The smallest details, such as abnormal sperm or oocyte spindle visualization during the ICSI process, may contribute significantly in the lab. This relies on the flexibility of visualization methods on the microscope, and ZEISS allows many contrasting techniques available on a single microscope.
For example, with the Axio Observer, fast IMSI has been used to assess sperm for obvious morphological abnormalities, such as larger vacuoles, during your regular ICSI workflow with a high-magnification objective and post-magnification that would not be detected with 20X magnification.
Enhance sperm analysis
Using ZEISS Smart Microscopy
Smart microscopy on a ZEISS microscope intelligently captures metadata, including scaling information automatically. This reduces the need for manual input, allowing embryologists to focus more on analysis and less on the process, thereby speeding up the overall workflow.
Improve your patient satisfaction ratings with
Real-time digital connectivity for oocyte retrieval
With ZEISS's advanced digital connectivity, IVF clinics can now provide immediate updates about the quality and quantity of oocytes retrieved directly to patients in recovery. This real-time communication not only enhances patient satisfaction but also improves coordination between clinical teams, fostering a more responsive and informed treatment environment.
Protect embryologists from strain in routine work
ZEISS microscopes is meant to protect the comfort of embryologists from eye strain from sudden light intensity increase during objective change. With the active light manager, uniform brightness at all magnifications can be enabled by user. Additionally the integrated snap button on the microscope stand automates imaging without taking need the embryologists to take their hands off the microscope.
