Round cells
Round-cell analysis
Automated image analysis

From image to report.

01

Image capture

The instrument optics capture the sample in the pre-filled cassette during analysis.

02

Detection

The image analysis identifies sperm and round cells, and calculates concentration, motility and CASA kinetics.

03

Classification and report

Morphology is classified automatically and the result is compiled into a report for the touchscreen or computer.

How the results are measured

From sample to clinical report.

LensHooke X3 Pro combines optical image capture and automated image analysis in a standardised cassette-based workflow. The result is a structured report covering core WHO 6 parameters and detailed CASA kinetics.

Concentration

The system identifies sperm in the image stream and calculates sperm concentration per millilitre.

Motility

Sperm movement is classified as rapid progressive, slow progressive, non-progressive or immotile.

CASA kinetics

VAP, VSL, VCL, LIN, STR, WOB, ALH and BCF describe sperm velocity, trajectory and movement patterns.

Morphology, pH and round cells

X3 Pro also compiles morphology, pH and round-cell results from the same sample workflow for a more complete routine analysis.

Workflow

Simple to use.

Step 01
Apply sample to CS1 cassette
Apply the sample
Apply two drops of the sample to the test cassette. No pretreatment is required.
Step 02
Insert cassette into X3 Pro
Insert the cassette
Slide the test cassette into LensHooke X3 Pro.
Step 03
Result shown on X3 Pro touchscreen
Read the result
A complete report is available on the 5" touchscreen or a connected computer in approximately one minute.
Reporting

Results straight on the instrument.

  • WHO 6 reference values shown directly on the 5" touchscreen
  • Detailed reports downloadable via computer or tablet

Evidence & methodology

Measurements built on a standardised foundation.

The WHO sixth edition manual emphasises standardised laboratory procedures, quality assurance and comparability between laboratories. A published study protocol uses X3 Pro for WHO 6-based analysis of concentration, motility and CASA kinetics.

X3 Pro in a published study protocol

The protocol describes motility classification and analysis of VAP, VSL, VCL, LIN, STR, WOB, ALH and BCF.

LensHooke studies as platform context

Published comparisons of LensHooke X1 Pro have examined concentration, motility and pH against established methods. These provide relevant methodological context, but should not be presented as direct X3 Pro validation.

Clinical interpretation remains a laboratory responsibility

The instrument automates the analysis, while sample handling, quality assurance, validation and clinical interpretation remain with the laboratory.

Frequently asked questions

About X3 Pro and the measurements.

Is X3 Pro a CASA analyser?

Yes. X3 Pro is an automated CASA-based solution for semen analysis with optical image capture, motility analysis and structured reporting.

Which parameters does X3 Pro measure?

X3 Pro is used to analyse concentration, motility, morphology, pH, round cells and CASA kinetics.

Which CASA kinematic parameters are reported?

Among others, VAP, VSL, VCL, LIN, STR, WOB, ALH and BCF, which describe sperm velocity and movement trajectories.

Does X3 Pro follow WHO 6?

X3 Pro is intended for a workflow based on the sixth edition of the WHO manual. The laboratory must also maintain its own validated procedures, quality assurance and reference handling.
