Advancing Embryo Selection with Automated Embryo Assessment: Geri Assess® 2.0

Elevating Precision in Automated Embryo Assessment

Because time-lapse culture generates vast amounts of morphokinetic data, manual annotation becomes both time-consuming and subject to inter-observer variability. Consequently, integrating automated embryo assessment bridges this gap. Specifically, this approach provides consistent, data-driven insights that empower embryologists to focus on clinical decision-making rather than repetitive data entry. Therefore, this technological shift ensures that the laboratory evaluates every embryo with the highest degree of accuracy.

How AI Enhances Embryo Evaluation

Furthermore, Geri Assess® 2.0 utilises advanced convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to detect key developmental events. The software accurately tracks discrete cleavage events and transient observations, such as fragmentation or reverse cleavage. As a result, the system presents these insights on an intuitive Timeline Bar, guiding the embryologist directly to the most critical moments of development. 

Implementing Custom Scoring Algorithms

Moreover, the platform supports custom scoring algorithms, which allows clinics to apply published models or their own proprietary data. For instance, embryologists can upload specific morphokinetic algorithms to generate personalized embryo scores. Thus, laboratories can seamlessly rank embryos for transfer or cryopreservation based on their unique clinical protocols.

Standardising Care Across the IVF Network

Ultimately, this flexibility ensures that the automated embryo assessment process adapts to each laboratory’s specific needs. In addition, it fosters standardized, high-quality care across the entire IVF network. Finally, clinics achieve superior outcomes and pave the way for improved patient care through these advanced, data-driven tools.
