Description
Written from a practical standpoint, this volume discusses the modern management of infertility, bringing together contemporary concepts in ovarian stimulation with a description of the gamete handling procedures required for the full range of infertility treatments. The text concentrates on specific clinical protocols and laboratory techniques, but also includes a historical perspective on the evolution of the procedural methods. It centres around IVF technology and includes recent developments in the exploration of tubal transfer procedures, as well as complex areas such as cryopreservation, ovum donation and surrogacy.
