Non-Invasive Pre-implantation Genetic Testing's Reliability for Aneuploidy using Cell-free DNA in Embryo Culture Media

The presence of embryonic cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent embryo culture media (SECM) may offer valuable advantages for non-invasive testing of embryo ploidy or genetic characteristics compared to trophectoderm (TE) biopsy. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic potential of SECM cfDNA as a non-invasive sample for chromosomal copy number testing in blastocysts within the clinical setting of in-vitro fertilization.
