Summary

The Investigator propose to develop an in-vitro technique for the measurement and analysis of freshly excised biopsies during hysteroscopy procedure in patients with suspected Chronic Endometritis (CE) condition. Furthermore, the investigator propose to develop a discrimination model between the CE and inflammatory CE types using the measured spectroscopic data from freshly excised biopsies.

Detailed description

It is common practice that, following hysteroscopy, the clinician needs to wait for about two weeks before the results of the histology are returned and the clinical treatment is initiated. In this research, the investigator intent to show that the mid infrared ATR (Assisted Reproductive Treatment) spectroscopy method will provide the physician with sufficient information about the CE inflammation status in a considerably shorter period of time to allow immediate initiation of the appropriate treatment.

Conditions

• Endometritis
• IVF
