Textbook of Assisted Reproductive Techniques 2vols-5판

Already established as a classic comprehensive reference for the whole team at the IVF clinic, this new edition has
been extensively revised, with the addition of several important new contributions on laboratory ( including advanced
sperm selection techniques for ICSI, human embryo biopsy procedures, oocyte activation, managing an oocyte bank,
artificial gametes, and epigenetics) as well as on clinical topics (including GnRH agonist triggering, segmentation of
IVF treatment, uterus transplantation, and risk and safety management). As previously, methods, protocols, and
techniques of choice are presented by eminent contributors internationally.
