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

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

October 2020—Agilent Technologies released the SureSelect XT HS2 RNA reagent kit. The kit enables users to accurately profile gene expression and detect RNA fusions using low-input FFPE samples and aims to significantly improve efficiency, especially in labs that process both DNA and RNA samples for next-generation–sequencing applications.
October 2020—Accumen announced a partnership with medical equipment manufacturer Spectrum Solutions to provide saliva testing kits for detecting COVID-19.
October 2020—ARUP Laboratories now offers COVID-19 testing using saliva specimens. The laboratory will perform the test only on saliva specimens collected using an ARUP collection kit with a health care provider present.
October 2020—Novodiax released two rapid ihcDirect reagent test kits for in vitro diagnostic use, ihcDirect CK19 and ihcDirect CK20.
October 2020—The FDA issued an emergency use authorization to Yale School of Public Health for its SalivaDirect COVID-19 diagnostic test, which uses a new method of processing saliva samples when testing for COVID-19 infection, the agency says.
October 2020—A ready-to-use microprotein standard kit is available from Verichem Laboratories. The kit is intended for the calibration verification of total protein and albumin concentrations in urine and cerebral spinal fluid. The five-level set provides 10 certified concentrations in an azide-free liquid format. The kit is suitable for use with turbidimetric and colorimetric testing methods and incorporates human protein components. Shelf life is 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored at 2° to 8°C.
October 2020—Bio SB launched its Fast Mohs PolyDetector Plus Detection System, a highly sensitive nonbiotin monovalent Fab micropolymer IHC detection system for the detection of IVD antibodies for melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. It is intended for the detection of difficult nuclear targets such as androgen receptor, Ki-67, p40, p63, and SOX10.
October 2020—CytoSmart Technologies launched an automated live-cell imaging system designed for long-term experiments, comparison studies, and large laboratory teams. The CytoSmart Multi Lux consists of four mini digital microscopes supported by automated image analysis software. Multi Lux technology enables users to run up to four experiments simultaneously from inside the incubator. Automated image analysis and immediate visualization of the results are accessible remotely via the CytoSmart cloud.
October 2020—Promega launched its benchtop capillary electrophoresis instrument, the Spectrum Compact CE system, developed in collaboration with Hitachi High-Tech. The integrated DNA analysis instrument enables life scientists in laboratories of all sizes to perform Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis at the bench.
October 2020—According to a recent NPJ Genomic Medicine paper (Jezkova J, et al. 2020;5:28), Oxford Gene Technology’s CytoSure Constitutional v3 array design significantly improved reporting rate and proved to be a powerful tool for the detection of small pathogenic intragenic deletions and duplications in developmental disorder research. The paper was led by a consortium of National Health Service genomic medicine centers in the U.K.; it compared the enhanced exon-level gene coverage of the v3 array with a conventional array design.
