July 2014—Missouri is no country for old men. Clinical, laboratory, and epidemiologic investigations conducted during the past five years have identified a new virus that can cause considerable illness and perhaps even death. All eight patients definitively proven to be ill with this virus have been over age 50; seven lived in Missouri.
July 2014—The benefits of building versus buying lab software: Like many in the field of pathology informatics, John Sinard, MD, PhD, does not believe that one-size-fits-all when it comes to laboratory software systems. But unlike many of his peers, he does not choose to live with the discrepancies or purchase a new product.
July 2014—Ethics of laboratory billing at stake in AMA’s code: Proposed revisions to the American Medical Association’s Code of Medical Ethics would remove language that supports direct billing and condemns clinicians who charge markups for laboratory or pathology services. The changes could weaken efforts to rein in billing practices that CAP leaders argue are not in the best interest of the patient and that the AMA currently defines as unethical.
July 2014—Assessing IHC biomarkers for basal-like breast cancer against a gene-expression profile gold standard: Gene-expression profiling of breast cancer delineates a particularly aggressive subtype referred to as basal-like. This subtype comprises approximately 15 percent of all breast cancers and afflicts younger women. It is refractory to endocrine and anti-HER2 therapies.
July 2014—G-G-G-E♭. Also known as da-da-da-DUM. Also known as the opening to Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. It’s a simple motif, heard repeatedly in the piece (not to mention across the centuries), yet no less thrilling for that fact. Maria M. Picken, MD, PhD, finds herself repeating an equally straightforward motif when she speaks about amyloidosis, and it, too, is worth hearing again: The disease is not being diagnosed early enough, and sometimes not at all. That theme has been a steady refrain of hers over the years, and it runs throughout a recent interview with CAP TODAY, so much so that she worries readers will respond with, Oh no, here she goes again.
July 2014—Our laboratory is thinking of validating additional immunostains to aid in identifying metastatic melanoma. What are the best markers to identify metastatic melanoma?
