The Congreso Peruano de Medicina Reproductiva (or Peruvian Congress of Reproductive Medicine) was recently held at the Swissotel Lima in Lima, Peru from November 21-23, 2019.

Now on its 19th year, the gathering organized by the Sociedad Peruana de Fertilidad (SBF), was well attended by professionals from the field of Reproductive Medicine. Around 300 embryologists from Peru, its South American neighbouring countries, and other Spanish-speaking nations like Mexico and Spain joined the said event.

Speakers invited talked about various topics from “Important Concepts in Infertility”, “Embryo Biopsy”, “Novel Concepts in Ovarian Stimulation”, to “Improving Results in In Vitro Fertilization”, and even highlighted the “Use of Time Lapse and its algorithms to improve embryo selection”.

Esco Medical, one of the leading companies in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), served as one of the major sponsors. The equipment displayed was a MIRI TL6. The MIRI® TL, Esco Medical’s flagship, top-notch device, is a multiroom incubator with a built-in camera and microscope. It provides high quality time-lapse images of embryos developing in 'real-time', without having to remove the embryos from the safety of the incubation chamber for manual microscopy. Esco Medical’s MIRI TL is known to provide a detailed morphokinetic data throughout embryo development, a feature that is not available on routine spot microscopic evaluation.

At the end of the congress, Dr. Luis Ernesto Escudero, the president of SPF, awarded Esco Medical the Exhibitors certificate. In behalf of Esco Medical, we would like to extend our utmost “felicidades” and “gracias” to the organizers and participants. Nos vemos en nuestro próximo evento!
