What is CASA testing?
Advanced Male Fertility Assessment at Sahara Diagnostics, Berhampur
Computer Assisted Semen Analysis (CASA) is a technology-assisted laboratory method used to study sperm movement and movement patterns through specialised microscopy and computer image-processing software.
Unlike a basic visual explanation of semen quality, CASA can provide quantitative measurements of sperm movement, helping laboratory professionals assess important characteristics of sperm motility.
The test can be useful as part of the investigation of male fertility, particularly when a doctor wants more detailed information about sperm movement.
Parameters evaluated during CASA
CASA-based assessment may include the following parameters, depending on the equipment and validated laboratory protocol:
1. Sperm Motility
Evaluates the movement of sperm cells and the proportion showing movement.
2. Progressive Motility
Assesses sperm that move forward, rather than merely moving without forward progression.
3. Sperm Movement Characteristics
Measures movement patterns and kinematic parameters such as velocity and trajectory.
4. Sperm Concentration
Estimates sperm numbers or concentration where the particular CASA system and laboratory protocol support this measurement.
Note: Sperm morphology, vitality and other semen parameters may require additional validated examination methods. CASA does not automatically replace a complete semen analysis.
Our CASA testing facilities at Sahara Diagnostics
At Sahara Diagnostics, Berhampur, we aim to support male reproductive health investigations through specialised diagnostic facilities and systematic laboratory procedures.
Our CASA testing facility focuses on:
Computer-Assisted Sperm Movement Analysis
Technology-supported examination of sperm movement and motility characteristics.
Microscopic Examination
Microscopic assessment to support the evaluation and interpretation of semen parameters.
Standardised Sample Handling
Appropriate sample preparation and timely examination are important for reliable semen analysis.
Quality-Focused Laboratory Procedures
Proper equipment operation, trained personnel, quality-control practices and standardised procedures are important for dependable laboratory results.
Patient Confidentiality
We understand the sensitive nature of male fertility investigations. Patient information and test reports should be handled with appropriate privacy and confidentiality.
For website publication, mention specific instrument brands, certifications or accreditation only if they are actually available at your laboratory.
When is a CASA test recommended?
A doctor may recommend CASA or semen analysis in situations such as:
• Difficulty conceiving after regular unprotected intercourse.
• Evaluation of possible male-factor infertility.
• Assessment of sperm motility and movement characteristics.
• Follow-up evaluation when advised by a fertility specialist.
• Investigation of male reproductive health as part of a couple's fertility
assessment.
CASA results should be interpreted along with medical history, clinical findings and other relevant investigations. A single semen test cannot independently establish whether a person is fertile or infertile.
How to prepare for a CASA test
Proper preparation and sample collection are important for semen analysis.
Maintain the recommended abstinence period
Follow your doctor's or laboratory's instructions.
A period of 2–7 days without ejaculation is commonly recommended for standard semen analysis.
Use a sterile specimen container
Collect the sample in a laboratory-approved sterile container.
Collect the complete sample
Ensure that the entire ejaculate is collected. Inform the laboratory if any portion is lost.
Submit the sample promptly
Follow the laboratory's instructions regarding collection location and submission time because sperm movement can change with time and temperature.
Inform the laboratory about relevant details
Mention recent fever, illness, medications or other relevant factors to your doctor.

Frequently asked questions about CASA testing
Q1. What is the full form of CASA?
CASA stands for Computer Assisted Semen Analysis. It is a technology-assisted method of examining sperm movement and motility characteristics.
Q2. Is CASA different from a normal semen analysis?
Yes. CASA uses computer-assisted image analysis to evaluate sperm movement patterns. Conventional semen analysis includes other important parameters and may involve manual microscopic examination. The two approaches can complement each other.
Q3. Does CASA test detect male infertility?
CASA provides useful information about sperm movement and related parameters. However, it cannot independently diagnose infertility. A complete clinical evaluation by a fertility specialist may be required.
Q4. How many days of abstinence are required before a CASA test?
A period of 2–7 days is commonly recommended for standard semen analysis. Follow the specific instructions provided by your laboratory.
Q5. Can CASA assess sperm motility?
Yes. Assessment of sperm motility and movement characteristics is one of the important applications of CASA technology.
Q6. Where can I get a CASA test in Berhampur?
You can contact Sahara Diagnostics, Beside Sales Tax Office, Gajapati Nagar Main Lane Extension, Berhampur, Odisha, for information about CASA testing and appointments.
