Scientific Abstract
Increasing survival of young cancer patients require fertility-preservation like ovarian-cryopreservation pretherapeutically with retransplantation post-therapy. However, this is not appropriate for all patients due to the risk of relapse. A promising alternative is the artificial ovary: follicles are separated from malignant cells. In the research proposed follicle survival, maturation and growth in 3D-scaffold will be observed by live cell imaging with confocal spinning disc microscopy.
