AI in Embryo Selection
Advanced IVF Technology at Excel IVF Delhi
The New Era of IVF with Artificial Intelligence
In IVF, choosing the best embryo is the most critical step for success. Traditionally, embryologists rely on morphology (appearance) and time lapse imaging. But even expert eyes have limitations.
Today, Artificial Intelligence (AI) brings a revolutionary change in embryo selection. AI analyses thousands of data points, learning from millions of embryo images and outcomes worldwide. It predicts which embryos are most likely to implant and result in a healthy baby.
At Excel IVF Centre in Delhi, we combine human expertise with AI-powered embryo grading systems to maximise IVF success, especially for couples with repeated failures.
What Is AI in Embryo Selection?
- AI uses machine learning algorithms to study embryo development patterns.
- It compares images and data against massive databases of past IVF outcomes.
- Provides an implantation potential score for each embryo.
- Helps doctors make more objective, data-driven decisions.
How Does AI Improve Embryo Selection in IVF?
AI adds precision, consistency, and prediction power to the embryo selection process.
Benefits of AI in IVF
- Objective Grading: Eliminates human bias in embryo selection.
- Higher Accuracy: Identifies embryos that “look normal” but are biologically weaker.
- Improved IVF Success: More reliable prediction of implantation.
- Reduced Failures: Prevents transfer of low-potential embryos.
- Optimised Single Embryo Transfer (SET): Allows safe transfers without compromising success rates.
AI vs Embryologist – What’s the Difference?
Feature | Embryologist Grading | AI Embryo Selection |
Basis | Visual assessment | Millions of data points & predictive models |
Consistency | May vary by person | Standardized & objective |
Speed | Manual & time-consuming | Fast & automated |
Accuracy | High but subjective | Higher predictive power |
Best Approach: At Excel IVF, we use AI + embryologist expertise together, ensuring technology supports human judgment rather than replacing it.
Step-by-Step AI Embryo Selection Process
1-Egg Retrieval & Fertilisation
2- Embryo Culture
- Embryos developed to day 5 (blastocyst stage).
3- Image Capture & Data Analysis
- AI software integrates with time lapse incubators.
- Analyses growth speed, cell divisions, morphology.
4- Implantation Potential Score
- Each embryo receives a score predicting chances of pregnancy.
5- Embryo Transfer Decision
- Doctors select embryos with the highest score.
Success Rate of AI in Embryo Selection
- AI-guided selection can improve success rates by 10–20% in high-risk patients.
- Reduces miscarriage rates by excluding low-quality embryos.
- Increases confidence in single embryo transfers.
At Excel IVF Delhi, outcomes with AI embryo selection have shown:
- Higher implantation rates.
- Fewer failed cycles.
- Better clinical pregnancy results in patients with multiple IVF failures.
Cost of AI Embryo Selection in Delhi
AI-based embryo selection is an advanced add-on to IVF.
- Average additional cost: ₹45,000 – ₹70,000 per cycle.
- Cost varies depending on whether it is combined with time lapse monitoring and PGT genetic testing.
- At Excel IVF, costs are transparent and discussed before treatment.
AI for Recurrent IVF Failures
Couples who have faced repeated failures despite good embryos often benefit the most from AI.
- Detects subtle differences missed by the human eye.
- Identifies embryos with hidden abnormalities.
- Increases chances in couples with repeated miscarriages.
Future of AI in IVF
AI is expected to play an even greater role in reproductive medicine.
- Integration with genetic testing (PGT-A, PGT-M).
- Predicting long-term embryo viability.
- Automated embryo selection globally.
- Making IVF more accessible by reducing failed cycles and costs.

FAQs on AI in Embryo Selection
AI in IVF uses artificial intelligence to analyse thousands of embryo images and predict which embryos are most likely to implant. It provides an implantation score to guide doctors in selecting the healthiest embryo.
Yes. By providing more accurate predictions, AI-guided embryo selection can improve success by 10–20%. It reduces IVF failures and increases confidence in single embryo transfers.
The additional cost ranges between ₹45,000–₹70,000 per cycle. Costs depend on whether AI is used alone or with time lapse monitoring and genetic testing.
AI doesn’t replace embryologists but enhances their work. It provides objective, data-driven scoring, while human expertise adds clinical judgment. The best results come from combining both.
Couples with repeated IVF failures, older maternal age, or poor embryo quality are the best candidates. First-time IVF patients may also benefit, but it is most valuable for high-risk cases.
Yes. It is non-invasive and does not touch embryos. AI works on images and data only, so there is no risk to embryo growth or development.
AI will soon integrate with genetic testing and time lapse monitoring for even more accurate predictions. It may help standardise IVF globally, reducing variability and improving outcomes everywhere.
