A METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EVALUATING QUALITY OF SEMEN SAMPLE

摘要

Disclosed herein is method and system for evaluating semen quality. Plurality of images of stained semen sample are captured and analyzed for eliminating unusable images. Further, visible objects in the images are extracted and classified into sperm objects and non-sperm objects. The sperm objects are further classified into normal/abnormal sperm objects based on morphological characteristics of sperm objects, and a differential count of normal/abnormal sperm objects is determined. Subsequently, an aggregate count of the non-sperm objects is determined. Finally, a sperm quality index, indicative of quality of the semen sample, is computed based on morphological characteristics of sperm objects, differential count of normal/abnormal sperm objects, aggregate count of non-sperm objects and total motility estimate of semen sample. The method of present disclosure helps in accurate estimation of the semen quality, since the aggregate count of the non-sperm objects is considered as a crucial parameter for computing the semen quality index.
