OSV Oosight Spindle View - Neelkanth IVF Centre

OSV (Oosight Spindle View)

OSV is a method used alongside ICSI to help produce high-quality embryos through meiotic spindle imaging. Polarized light microscopy is used to visualize the spindle. By viewing the meiotic spindle just before ICSI, the procedure can be performed more safely and at the optimal point during meiosis.

Clinical practitioners use OSV to assess oocyte quality before fertilization, and combining it with ICSI helps maximize treatment efficacy.

Benefits of OSV Treatment

Visualization allows technicians to identify the precise stage of meiosis for performing ICSI.
Optimal embryo quality is essential for IVF treatment, and OSV helps reduce the risk of chromosomal abnormalities.
It helps identify eggs with healthy spindles.

How Does OSV work?

Preparation: The spindle within the egg is examined using polarized light microscopy, helping ensure proper chromosome division during fertilization.

Imaging: The different phases of spindle development are evaluated.

ICSI Procedure: Sperm is injected into the egg’s cytoplasm.

Evaluation: Medical professionals monitor the different stages of the cultivated fertilized eggs.
