Abstract
Pol-Scope imaging allows investigation at near real time of spindle dynamics during activation of living oocytes. Spindles also showed evidence of activation even in karyoplasts. The procedure may be useful for detecting functional spindle aberrations in living oocytes. Further studies are needed to determine whether spindle dynamics predict clinical outcome.
