Brief Summary:
This study is focused on analysing the application of ultrasound scanning techniques as new biomarkers in reproductive medicine. Those biomarkers are based on the analysis of ultrasound texture in different areas of uterine tissue, using 2D/3D ultrasound scanning. Investigators will use the algorithm Text® to analyse the ultrasound texture of the endometrium and myometrium. The aim of the project is to study if it is possible to obtain measurable, objective and reproducible data in healthy volunteers which can be used to predict pregnancy and determine the best moment to perform embryo transfer in assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles

Along several visits to the clinic, the patients will be subjected to 2D/3D ultrasound scanning.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Clinical pregnancy rate [ Time Frame: Around 5-6 weeks after embryo transfer ]
    Detection of gestational sac through ultrasound scanning indicating clinical pregnancy

  2. Biochemical miscarriage rate [ Time Frame: Up to one month after embryo transfer ]
    Interruption of pregnancy after a positive result in the beta HCG test

  3. Clinical miscarriage rate [ Time Frame: Up to 20 weeks after embryo transfer ]
    Interruption of pregnancy after confirming clinical pregnancy using ultrasound scanning

  4. Chemical pregnancy rate [ Time Frame: Around 14 days after embryo transfer ]
    Positive result in beta HCG test indicating pregnancy

  5. beta HCG level [ Time Frame: Around 14 days after embryo transfer ]
    Level of beta HCG in the test performed to detect pregnancy
