Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.
Webinar presenter Mark Ewalt, MD, Associate Medical Director for Laboratory Operations for Diagnostic Molecular Pathology in the Molecular Diagnostics Service, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, MSKCC.

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 Cente, and Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive.

January 2023—Borrelia burgdorferi is the leading cause of Lyme disease in the United States, with approximately 35,000 new cases reported to the CDC each year. The agency recommends a two-tiered approach to testing.
January 2023—Radioembolization therapy uses yttrium-90-impregnated resin or glass microspheres to selectively target hepatic lesions via transarterial radioembolization. Occasional cases of gastrointestinal (GI) tract injury secondary to nontargeted delivery of microspheres have been reported, but large descriptive pathology series are lacking.
January 2023—An international group of scientists and clinicians identified the molecular cause of a rare neurodevelopmental syndrome affecting children worldwide. This discovery was made possible through such publicly available online databases as MyGene2, GeneMatcher, and Matchmaker Exchange, which match genotypic profiles with phenotypic profiles of rare diseases.
December 2022—Tranexamic acid is an antifibrinolytic drug that improves survival in adults with traumatic hemorrhage. To the authors’ knowledge, it has not been evaluated in a trial of injured children.
December 2022—Prostatic duct adenocarcinoma, which is characterized by pseudostratified columnar epithelium, has historically been considered invasive carcinoma, although it may have an intraductal component.
December 2022—Infantile-onset epilepsy has a variety of underlying etiologies, including brain injury, metabolic disorders, and genetic factors. Refractory epileptic conditions in infants can result in developmental delays, poor quality of life, and increased mortality rates.
November 2022—Exposure to lead may cause severe illness in children, including neurological damage, organ failure, and even death. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other agencies recommend routine testing for blood lead levels (BLL) as part of a well-child examination to identify elevated levels and, subsequently, eliminate exposure to lead and initiate therapeutic interventions.
November 2022—Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms show a range of morphologic features and biological risk. At one end of the spectrum, high-grade adenocarcinomas are cytologically malignant and exhibit infiltrative invasion, lymph node metastases, and behavior similar to that of extra-appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinomas.
November 2022—Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is an uncommon cause of acute heart attack. It is not associated with high cholesterol or atherosclerosis but, instead, occurs when a small tear or separation in the wall of the coronary artery leads to blood entering a false lumen, occluding blood flow and impairing oxygenation of the heart muscle.
November 2022—Lab test result formats are not standardized, potentially causing confusion when the same test results are displayed differently—for example, when a positive pregnancy test appears as +, P, or positive, or an indeterminate test result appears as DNR, which could be interpreted to mean did not report, did not react, or even do not resuscitate. Because of this issue, the authors trialed standard laboratory result formats across the 130 facilities that are part of the Veterans Health Administration, each of which has one or more CLIA-certified laboratories. The authors selected the most common laboratory tests from each facility, which composed at least 95 percent of a facility’s monthly laboratory test volume between 2000 and 2015. They then specified the standard result formats for these tests based on the facilities’ feedback. Personalized emails were sent weekly, over a 15-week period in 2016, to the facilities’ lab information systems managers, lab managers, and laboratory directors.
