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.

November 2013—Participants in the CAP cytopathology programs will have new modules to select and new cases to learn from in 2014. Samples of static images that accompany the Touch Imprint/Crush Prep cases. In gynecologic cytopathology, a new L module for education will feature liquid-based SurePath and ThinPrep slide methods only. These will be designated PAPL/APAPL, with a choice of series one or two.
November 2013—When Richard J. Zarbo, MD, reflects on the strategy that helped his Detroit-based Henry Ford Health System achieve CAP accreditation to the ISO 15189 standard this summer, he likes to quote the system’s famously methodical founder: “Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs.”
November 2013—Philip T. Cagle, MD, was presented Oct. 13 with the Pathologist of the Year award during an evening event at the CAP ’13 annual meeting in Kissimmee, Fla. At the same event, at the Gaylord Palms Orlando, Feriyl Bhaijee, MBChB, was honored as Resident of the Year, and Si Van Nguyen, MD, received the second annual CAP Foundation Gene & Jean Herbek Humanitarian award.
Hopes, fears, frustrations, and change. In time for our annual LIS product guide (pages 23–38), that’s what CAP TODAY asked LIS companies and lab users of IT about. What we heard was talk of uncertainty, complexity, finite IT resources, the need to stay current, and, as one company president put it, “swimming with an anchor” attached. Here’s what they told us.
November 2013—When it comes to home improvement projects, we all have our own comfort level. Some of us order a load of lumber and build a new addition to our home; others limit themselves to assembling a bookcase from Ikea. And there are those who leave everything to professionals.
November 2013—After the patient specimens have been collected and the tests have been performed, after the legwork is complete and the results are in hand, reporting clinical microbiology findings should in theory be the easy part—the final step before an effective treatment plan is formed. But as any seasoned clinical microbiologist knows, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
November 2013—Like turning around an ocean-going tanker, changing widely accepted testing practices in kidney disease, one of the nation’s most common disorders, may have to be done gradually. But the latest study comparing the biomarkers cystatin C and creatinine, published in the Sept. 5 New England Journal of Medicine (2013;369:932–943), is the most sweeping study to date and should provide new impetus to wider use of cystatin C.
November 2013—PT for the passionate and the savvy I believe that most pathologists and laboratory professionals enjoy refining systems and processes to further promote quality practices in their laboratories. We may not think about discipline and precision when somebody mentions passion, but passion is what those inclinations represent. While passionate pathology can manifest in a host of ways, this month I’d like to talk about how it drives excellence in CAP Surveys or proficiency testing (PT) programs.
November 2013—There’s nothing flashy about specimen tubes, which may look like the most mass-produced, commonplace items in the laboratory, but appearances can be deceptive. All tubes are not created equal. “We know that preanalytical errors account for the majority of errors in the laboratory, and many of those errors derive from the tube type in which you collect your sample,” says Leslie J. Donato, PhD, co-director of the hospital clinical laboratory and point of care at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
October 2013—For anyone worried about the new CAP reporting templates for cancer biomarkers, Patrick L. Fitzgibbons, MD, has an important message: Don’t panic. “These are nothing new,” says Dr. Fitzgibbons, a pathologist at St. Jude Medical Center, Fullerton, Calif., and chair of the CAP Cancer Biomarker Reporting Committee. “We’re not adding anything. The templates will look very familiar to users of the CAP cancer protocols. They shouldn’t be considered a significant burden.”
