Healthy Embryos Show Chromosome Flaws A study involving higher-resolution genetic screening suggests that healthy embryos may be wasted during IVF. Using DNA fingerprinting, researchers strive to improve in vitro fertilization. New noninvasive screening techniques aim to identify the healthiest embryos. Finding the Right Embryo to Implant A quick and easy technique for screening embryos in IVF procedures could lead to an improved chance of pregnancy. A growing number of genetic tests can be performed during in vitro fertilization, before pregnancy even begins. Is that a good thing? Picking the Best Embryo from the Bunch New embryo-screening technologies could weed out embryos with major genetic abnormalities and improve IVF success rates. [1]
