ICSI is a laboratory technique. It stands for intracytoplasmic sperm injection, where the embryologist will inject a single spermatozoon or sperm into a single egg. We use this technique when we may have less number of spermatozoa in the whole semen sample. To bypass that quantity issue, we use ICSI. We use it in King's Fertility for about 50% of our patients, and the results are really good, and it's been used since the '90s, so it's a very well-established technique.
