The present study aims to describe novel non-invasive parameters related to the competence of female reproductive cells (oocytes). In a fertility unit, human reproductive cells and embryos are subjected to different imaging technologies. Images can easily be obtained without disturbing the microenvironment during different standard procedures. Turning images into quantifiable data might provide a further understanding on oocyte behavior and performance in the laboratory.
