AI finds hidden sperm, offering hope for men with no sperm in ejaculate

NCT ID NCT07074015

First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study tests a new AI-assisted platform called IntelliWell that can identify rare sperm cells in testicular tissue samples from men with non-obstructive azoospermia (no sperm in ejaculate). Instead of discarding tissue that appears sperm-free under standard analysis, the platform scans it to find usable sperm for fertility treatments like ICSI. The trial involves 20 men undergoing sperm retrieval surgery, aiming to see if the AI can successfully detect and retrieve sperm for potential use in conception.
