At Rebirth Women’s Clinic, we utilize the Oocyte Spindle Assay as an advanced tool to assess the maturity and quality of eggs during IVF. This technique provides valuable insights into the visibility, alignment, and structure of the meiotic spindle — a critical component responsible for accurate chromosomal division. Using state-of-the-art polarised light microscopy, our team ensures the selection of the healthiest and most viable oocytes for fertilization.
The Oocyte Spindle Assay is a specialized imaging technique used during IVF that allows visualization of the meiotic spindle in the oocyte without damaging it. A visible and well-structured spindle indicates a mature, healthy egg that has a higher chance of successful fertilization and embryo development.
At Rebirth Women’s Clinic, the Oocyte Spindle Assay helps us ensure:
Accurate assessment of egg maturity before ICSI
Higher chances of selecting viable oocytes
Reduced risk of chromosomal abnormalities
Improved embryo quality and pregnancy outcomes
Non-invasive, safe assessment method
Using polarized light microscopy, our embryologists assess whether the spindle is present, aligned, and properly formed — indicating a mature and ready oocyte.
The spindle's location helps determine the ideal site for sperm injection, reducing the risk of damaging the oocyte and increasing the chances of successful fertilization.
Eggs with a visible, healthy spindle yield embryos with better developmental potential, supporting improved IVF outcomes.
Assessing spindle quality helps avoid the use of eggs with chromosomal abnormalities, thereby reducing the risks of implantation failure or miscarriage.
Advanced spindle imaging technology for accurate egg evaluation
Enhanced selection of high-quality oocytes for ICSI
Improved fertilization and embryo development success
Reduced risk of chromosomal abnormalities
