background: recently, motile sperm organelle morphology examination (msome) criteria as a new real time tool for evaluation of spermatozoa in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) cycles has been considered. objective: the aim was to investigate the predictive value of msome in in vitro fertilization (ivf) in comparison to icsi cycles and evaluation of the association between msome parameters...

Sperm morphological analysis (SMA) is an essential step in diagnosing male infertility. Using images of human sperm cells, this research proposes a unique sequential deep-learning method to detect abnormalities semen samples. The proposed technique identifies and examines several components sperm. In order conduct study, we used the online Modified Human Morphology Analysis (MHSMA) dataset cont...

Background: Digital image processing and analysis are used for computer assisted evaluation of sperm morphology. Sperm head morphology has been identified as a characteristic that can be used to predict a male’s semen quality. On the other hand, zygote competence analysis is an importance tool to select embryo(s) for transfer. The aim of the present study is to determine zygote quality resulted...

Background: Many sperm characteristics including, motility and morphology are important for normal spermatozoa- oocyte intraction. These features may be altered during vitrification. Motile sperm organelle morphology examination (MSOME) is an unstained real time high magnification technique that analysis viable sperm morphology instantly. This study aimed to investigate the influence of vitrifi...

OBJECTIVE The aim was to investigate the predictive value of MSOME in in vitro fertilization (IVF) in comparison to ICSI cycles and evaluation of the association between MSOME parameters...

BACKGROUND An embryo's ability to grow and implant can be improved by selection of a normal spermatozoon with a vacuole-free head. However, large vacuoles in spermatozoa have yet to be fully characterized. The present study aimed to determine whether these vacuoles are of nuclear, membrane and/or acrosomal origin. METHODS We studied 15 infertile patients with differing sperm profiles. For eac...

Structural changes inside the head of Thyone sperm undergoing the acrosomal reaction were followed with a high-resolution, differential interference contrast (DIC) video microscope . The beating sperm, adhering by their midpiece to the cover slip of a wedge perfusion chamber, were activated by a calcium ionophore (201uM A23187) suspended in sea water containing 50 mM excess CaC12. Before activa...
