This session is designed to improve understanding and application of recent updates to synoptic pathology reporting protocols such as the latest Reporting Template for Reporting Results of Biomarker Testing of Specimens from Patients with Carcinoma of the Breast. These changes reflect evolving clinical guidelines that directly influence diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection in breast cancer care.

August 2013—In the May 20, 2013 issue of the New Yorker, Google co-founder Sergey Brin is quoted as saying of Internet security: “In big corporations people don’t understand what security people do, for the most part, and no one pays attention to them unless something goes wrong. Frankly, a lot of companies aren’t that interested in security.”
July 2013—In his 25-year practice career, Texas obstetrician James Maher, MD, has performed several thousand amniocenteses, using a long needle to draw amniotic fluid from the uterus of higher-risk pregnant women to rule out certain fetal chromosomal abnormalities—trisomy 21, or Down syndrome, in particular.
July 2013—The CAP Residents Forum, a voice for pathology residents and an effective agent of change, will celebrate its 25th anniversary at CAP ’13. Forty-two residents attended the first CAP Residents Forum in October 1988. Last year, 218 delegates from 116 training programs came to the meeting, a remarkable fivefold increase.
July 2013—After weeks of bewilderment, W. Frank Peacock, MD, finally solved the mystery of one of his so-called frequent fliers in the Emergency Department.
July 2013—When it comes to fighting sepsis, the ingenuity of the laboratory is indispensable.
July 2013—The U.S. Supreme Court last month handed down a landmark decision on a narrow issue with broad implications for molecular medicine: Can genes be patented? In ruling that as products of nature, genes did not meet the criteria for patent eligibility, the Court brought its collective wisdom to bear on an issue that has troubled physicians, ethicists, and patients for nearly 20 years and hindered innovators in academia and industry. The Court declared invalid the patents on the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2, patents that were at the heart of an intellectual property estate that enabled Myriad Genetics to create a commercial monopoly in BRCA testing.
June 2013—In 219 BCE, after he had unified the seven warring states to establish the nucleus of the Chinese empire, the First Emperor of China promulgated uniform administrative practices throughout the land. One section of his decree read: All men under the sky toil with a single purpose. Tools and measures are made uniform. The written script is standardized. Wherever the sun and moon shine.
June 2013—My father and his brother were teenagers when they found steerage on a ship to the United States in 1910. They arrived with neither English nor assets but with a firm belief that this democracy would provide opportunity. My father completed high school, college, and medical school under difficult circumstances; the long effort gave shape to his hopes. He became a physician who loved his work. We absorbed by osmosis the satisfactions of a life devoted to thoroughly unreasonable goals. I still believe what we learned then: In this country, effort that is intentional and persistent will be respected and rewarded.
June 2013—What began as a trickle of reports in China earlier this year swelled into a flood of patients with grave flu-like symptoms. Each time, PCR assays returned the same result: unsubtypable influenza A. Amid a rising mortality rate, viral samples were sent to China’s national laboratories for sequencing analyses. On March 31, Chinese officials posted the results to an open-access database and alerted the World Health Organization to a public health emergency of international concern: The H7N9 epidemic had begun.
June 2013—Lance Peterson, MD, wasn’t expecting to be surprised. But the numbers were dramatic enough to startle even him.
