[Comparative assessment of laboratory methods used in the analysis of semen].
The purpose of the given study was to: - compare quantitative and qualitative indicators of the semen, examined with the use of the special sperm analyzer "SQA IIC-P", as well as through the methods of light microscopy; - and to select the parameters from both types of study, combined application of which would give the most optimal picture of the spermatogenesis of an examined individual. Twenty fertile and 65 childless men in the age range of 20-35 years were examined. Conclusion is given that the sperm analyzer "SQA IIC-P" accurately determines essential parameters of the reproduction function of men, however for targeted treatment it is critical to know a number of parameters, best revealed through microscopic examination of untreated and colored samples of semen. Therefore for obtaining a complete picture it is essential to combine examination of the semen both with the analyzer as well as through the use of microscopic methods.
