  • Patent number: 12020782
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for evaluating viability of oocytes. In some implementation examples, an image sequence associated with an oocyte being aspirated into a pressure tool is obtained. Based on the image sequence and pressures applied on the oocyte, morphological features and mechanical features associated with the oocyte can be derived. At least some of the features can then be fed into a machine learning model to determine metrics indicative of quality of the oocyte, where a particular metric may be indicative of blastocyst formation. Optionally, the determined oocyte quality information can be presented to a user via an interactive user interface.

  • Patent number: 12018329
    Abstract: Embodiments of this invention provide methods, systems, and apparatus for determining whether a fetal chromosomal aneuploidy exists from a biological sample obtained from a pregnant female. Nucleic acid molecules of the biological sample are sequenced, such that a fraction of the genome is sequenced. Respective amounts of a clinically-relevant chromosome and of background chromosomes are determined from results of the sequencing. The determination of the relative amounts may count sequences of only certain length. A parameter derived from these amounts (e.g. a ratio) is compared to one or more cutoff values, thereby determining a classification of whether a fetal chromosomal aneuploidy exists. Prior to sequencing, the biological sample may be enriched for DNA fragments of a particular sizes.
