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.

Webinar presenters Thaer Khoury, MD, FCAP, Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Colin Murphy,  CEO of mTuitive.

Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

Tuesday, June 9, 2026, 1:00–2:00 PM ET
In this webinar, we will examine how immune recognition after allogeneic HCT can influence leukemia relapse and disease progression. The session will highlight the clinical relevance of HLA loss of heterozygosity (LOH), approaches used for its detection, and how LOH findings may support transplant strategies, including considerations for donor selection in subsequent transplantation.

Webinar presenter Alberto Cardoso Martins Lima, PhD, Clinical consulting scientist in histocompatibility,
specializing in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) at IGEN/AFIP São Paulo and CHC/UFPR in Curitiba, Brazil

Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

BioMérieux Vidas Kube gets CE mark

January 2023—BioMérieux announced the CE marking of its Vidas Kube, a next-generation automated immunoassay system for the company’s Vidas range. The system features a stackable and modular benchtop design and is compatible with the existing routine test menu covering emergency and critical care, immunochemistry, and infectious diseases. The commercial launch is planned in selected countries at the beginning of the year, extending gradually to the rest of the world during the second quarter.

Roche launches antibody to identify PRAME protein expression

January 2023—Roche has launched its Anti-PRAME (EPR20330) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody to identify PRAME protein expression in tissue samples from patients who are suspected of having melanoma. Studies suggest that the detection of PRAME expression by immunohistochemistry complements findings from routinely used tests and enables more informed clinical decisions and improved patient outcomes, according to a company press release.

 

SeraCare BRCA NGS reference material

January 2023—LGC SeraCare announced the availability of its Seraseq FFPE BRCA1/2 LGR Reference Material intended for use with next-generation sequencing assays or amplified nucleic-acid–based methods that identify somatic and germline variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. The reference material contains 20 DNA variants in the genomic background of GM24385. One 10-μm formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded curl is provided per vial.

Bio-Rad launches blood screening controls in Europe

January 2023—Bio-Rad Laboratories has announced that Exact Diagnostics HBV, HCV, and HIV-1 screen controls are available in Europe. The controls are designed to monitor the performance of blood donor screening assays and are calibrated against the Third WHO International Standard for HBV (NIBSC code 10/264) and HIV-1 (10/152) and the Fourth WHO International Standard for HCV (06/102). The products are made of whole viruses in a citrate plasma matrix to ensure lot-to-lot reproducibility, have an 18-month shelf life from date of manufacture when stored at −20°C or below, and are stable for 24 hours when stored at 2° to 8°C.

Spot Imaging introduces sample-tracking solutions

January 2023—Spot Imaging has introduced three instruments for sample tracking and storage designed to address staffing shortages and storage inefficiencies. BlocDoc automatically captures images of cut blocks and raw slides for electronic sharing and tracking. The PathTracker scans cassettes and slide transport containers in bulk, scanning 150 cassettes in less than 25 seconds, and uploads the information to the PathTracker and laboratory information system. PathArchiv is a file-room sample management system for blocks and slides that can trace samples by case, loan status, location, or age.

Thermo Fisher launches TrueMark infectious disease panels

January 2023—Thermo Fisher Scientific launched its TrueMark Infectious Disease Research Panels. The analytically sensitive, duplexed TaqMan assays are performed on pre-spotted and dried-down plates that include microorganism‑specific pathogens, using real‑time PCR techniques, which enables rapid and accurate detection for investigating microorganisms that cause respiratory, vaginal, urinary, gastrointestinal, and sexually transmitted diseases. The predefined and customizable panel options allow researchers to choose from more than 90 different bacterial and viral strain assays to generate results within four hours of taking the samples. Testing can be done from nasopharyngeal swabs or nasopharyngeal aspirate; vaginal, genital, and lesion swabs; or urine samples.

Qiagen, Helix partner to advance CDx for hereditary diseases

February 2023—Qiagen announced an exclusive strategic partnership with Helix to advance companion diagnostics for hereditary diseases. Under the agreement, Qiagen will be the exclusive marketing and contracting partner in the United States for Helix’s companion diagnostic services.

 

Thermo Fisher liquid biopsy assays

February 2023—Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced more than 50 Absolute Q liquid biopsy assays for research use. The wet lab verified liquid biopsy assays provide highly sensitive, specific nucleic acid quantification, enabling single nucleotide polymorphisms detection down to 0.1 percent variant allele frequency.

 

Vistapath introduces Sentinel platform

February 2023—Vistapath has introduced its flagship product, the Sentinel pathology processing platform. The platform uses machine vision combined with artificial intelligence to assess specimens and create a gross report in a few seconds. It consists of the Sentinel module, which measures 17 in.
