This paper reports the proceedings of an international consensus meeting on oocyte and embryo morphology assessment. Following background presentations about current practice, the expert panel developed a set of consensus points to define the minimum criteria for oocyte and embryo morphology assessment. It is expected that the definition of common terminology and standardization of laboratory practice related to embryo morphology assessment will result in more effective comparisons of treatment outcomes. This document is intended to be referenced as a global consensus to allow standardized reporting of the minimum dataset required for the accurate description of embryo development. This paper reports the proceedings and outcomes of an international consensus meeting on human oocyte and embryo morphology assessment. An expert panel developed a series of consensus points to define the minimum criteria for such assessments. The definition of common terminology, and standardization of laboratory practices related to these morphological assessments, will permit more effective comparisons of treatment outcomes around the world. This report is intended to be referenced as a global consensus to allow standardized reporting of the minimum descriptive criteria required for routine clinical evaluations of human embryo development in vitro.
本文报告了一次关于卵母细胞和胚胎形态评估的国际共识会议的进展情况。在关于当前实践的背景介绍之后，专家小组制定了一系列共识点，以定义卵母细胞和胚胎形态评估的最低标准。预计定义共同术语和胚胎形态评估相关实验室实践的标准化将导致更有效地比较治疗结果。本文旨在作为全球共识参考，以便标准化报告准确描述胚胎发育所需的最小数据集。本文报告了一次关于人类卵母细胞和胚胎形态评估的国际共识会议的进展和结果。一个专家小组制定了一系列共识点，以定义这些评估的最低标准。共同术语的定义和与这些形态评估相关的实验室实践的标准化，将使世界各地的治疗结果更有效地进行比较。本报告旨在作为全球共识参考，以便标准化报告体外人类胚胎发育常规临床评估所需的最小描述性标准。
