Recovery of the oocytes contained within the ovarian follicles for in vitro or in vivo fertilization, as done in assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF or GIFT. Nowadays, ultrasoundguided oocyte retrieval has become the most commonly used technique. As opposed to oocyte retrieval methods formerly used (laparoscopic oocyte retrieval), ultrasound-guided oocyte retrieval can be practised without general anesthesia.
When mature eggs are retrieved from the ovaries using a fine needle. The procedure is done vaginally and the needle is guided by ultrasound. Follicular fluid is aspirated and the egg is identified by an embryologist using a microscope.
A procedure that collects the eggs from the ovary via a small catheter that is inserted into the follicles and then transferred into a Petri dish ready to be introduced to sperm.
A procedure to collect eggs (oocytes) from the ovarian follicles using an ultrasound-guided transvaginal (through the top of the vagina) needle aspiration technique. Egg recovery is performed 34 to 36 hours after the administration of hCG, which is given to induce ovulation. The egg retrieval is performed in the procedure room adjacent to the IVF laboratory by your physician. An embryologist examines the follicular fluid and follicular flushing solutions aspirated from each follicle to locate and identify oocytes. Eggs are collected into culture media, washed and transferred to the IVF laboratory where they are evaluated for viability and maturity.
A surgical procedure to collect the eggs contained within the ovarian follicles, either via laparoscopic or ultrasound-guided follicular aspiration through which a needle is inserted into the follicle, the fluid and egg are aspirated into the needle, and then placed into a culture medium-filled dish.
A surgical procedure, usually under sedation, to collect the eggs contained with the ovarian follicles. A needle is inserted into the follicle, the fluid and egg are aspirated into the needle and then placed into a culture medium - filled dish.
An IVF procedure, performed under sedation, in which mature eggs are removed from the ovary by a needle placed through the vaginal wall.
A surgical procedure, usually under sedation, to collect the eggs contained within the ovarian follicles. A needle is inserted into the follicle, the fluid and egg are aspirated into the needle and then placed into a petri dish filled with culture media.
Recovery of the eggs (oocytes) contained within the ovarian follicles for in-vitro or in-vivo fertilization, as is done in assisted reproduction technologies such as IVF or GIFT. Nowadays, ultrasound guided egg retrieval has become the most commonly used technique
A surgical procedure, usually under sedation, to collect the eggs contained with the ovarian follicles. The physician inserts a needle into the follicle, draws out the follicle's fluid and egg through the needle, and then places the egg into a dish in preparation for insemination
