The IVF Lab at Fertility Center of Dallas allows our patients to receive the highest level of fertility care together with the latest in assisted reproductive technology (ART). All of our ART treatments and testing are performed in-house ensuring tighter control and security for the best chance at successful treatment.
Our IVF Lab
Safety is Our Highest Concern
Fertility Center of Dallas ensures around the clock monitoring of the embryos in their care. Trust is essential in fertility treatment, and our laboratory team works hard to earn it, from daily safeguarding of embryos to forward thinking research and technology. Our patients’ most challenging reproductive care continues to be our number one priority.
Some of the common procedures that our certified IVF lab performs:
EMBRYO BIOPSIES
ASSISTED HATCHING
Clean Room Laboratory Isolation
The laboratory at Fertility Center of Dallas is isolated from the outside environment by tightly sealed ceilings, walls, light fixtures, utility connections and airtight doors making it ‘impermeable’ to contaminant agents, airborne toxins and microbes from leaking into the room. The embryology lab is held pressurized above the adjacent procedure rooms so that air moves from the embryology lab to the procedure room and out. This prevents any contaminant or toxin in the air from coming into the lab through the doors. The system is also set up so that if the lab encounters serious air pollution, such as from an outside fire, heavy highway construction or a chemical spill, the embryology team can switch to a ‘submarine mode’ and can recirculate the air inside the laboratory instead of using outside air.
This complex system was designed to imitate the defense and detoxification mechanism imposed by the mother during the growth of the embryos inside her body. Laboratories that are poorly designed can lead to decreased pregnancy rates due to embryo-toxic materials in the air. Failure to isolate the sensitive and delicate embryo from these materials can lead to increased stress on the developing embryo resulting in decreased pregnancy rates. Our focus on having one of the most advanced facilities in North Texas is demonstrated by our highly successful IVF program and pregnancy rates.
