Assisted zona hatching is an assisted reproductive technology procedure, used mainly in in vitro fertilization, that creates a small opening in the zona pellucida surrounding an embryo, using mechanical, chemical, or laser methods. This is meant to help the blastocyst break free of the zona pellucida so that it can implant in the uterus.
