Abstract:
Recent rapid advances in assisted reproduction (ART) have led to global increase in usage of in vitro fertilization. This in turn has resulted in clinicians and imaging specialists encountering increase in complications associated with ART. The specialists dealing with infertility should be aware of potential complications associated with ART. Early diagnosis of these problems is based on clinician's suspicion and radiologist's awareness of these complications. Many of these conditions may be life threatening. Hence, early diagnosis and treatment of these complications can safeguard the fetal and maternal health.
