A total number of 1092 embryos, originated from 168 couples that underwent IVF cycles, were analyzed in this study. The embryos were cultivated in a continuous culture and monitored using the time lapse system EmbryoScope. The microscopic images of the fertilized eggs and the resulting embryos were thorough processed and analyzed using program ImageJ. The paper aims at presenting a noninvasive method, which is based on a thorough analysis of the microscopic image of fertilized eggs, using different forms of complexity (fractal dimension, lacunarity and succolarity), that may improve our ability to select embryos with the highest implantation potential.
