Montag](https://blog.vitrolife.com/togetheralltheway/author/dr-markus-montag), May 30, 2017 # Practical considerations when introducing PGT in your IVF clinic Almost three decades ago, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) was applied clinically for the first time by pioneers like Alan Handyside in the UK and Yuri Verlinsky in the US. Still, introducing this procedure can be a challenge. In this blog post you will get a practical guidance of what to consider when introducing PGT in your IVF clinic. ## **Genetic testing is a progressing but yet complex field** After the clinical introduction, the rather small group of reproductive clinicians, embryologists and geneticists, who work with genetic testing such as PGT-A and PGT-M, have now grown into a global mega-community. [The technology has also moved forward in almost all aspects involved.](https://blog.vitrolife.com/togetheralltheway/are-pgs-and-pgd-here-to-stay-this-is-what-the-ivf-community-thinks) Small expert meetings and discussion groups have evolved into large conferences and organisations that promote the field. Despite all this it can be challenging for anyone who will enter this field to find the way through what looks like a maze of terminology and specialisation. ## **How will the introduction of PGT affect your IVF lab?** The main areas that will be affected when genetic testing is introduced are: - Laboratory equipment - Staff - Workflows There are many factors to consider when introducing PGT as a routine treatment offer as a proper implementation involves both the IVF laboratory and the genetic center. The first step is to consider what has to be invested in regard to get the required equipment. Training and education is the next step and should not only concentrate on biopsy but also on accompanying expertise that is needed, like sampling of the biopsy material and vitrification of blastocysts. All procedures have to be embedded into a clear-cut workflow that links all parties involved and is based on a proper quality management system. Eventually staff number have to be adapted, as overall working time will increase.
