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.
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

March 2014—A wide-ranging set of recommended health information technology safety practices recently issued by the Department of Health and Human Services is likely to accentuate the essential role that pathologists and laboratory leaders play in minimizing the adverse consequences of health IT.
March 2014—Implementation of meaningful use and related federal regulations has spurred widespread adoption of the electronic health record, and that’s a game-changer. Every one of us will need to have competence in clinical informatics, to varying degrees.
March 2014—Q. What are the actionable mutations in melanoma that warrant routine molecular testing? Who should be tested, and what specimen should be tested? Is there a role for stat BRAF testing and for next-generation sequencing?
March 2014—Patient-access rule creates opportunities, costs for labs: A long-awaited Department of Health and Human Services rule that requires laboratories to provide completed test reports to patients upon request may strengthen the relationship patients have with their pathologists, but also will pose another compliance burden for labs in many states.
March 2014—Traditional urinalysis is messy. It’s tedious. It’s prone to variability. It’s nicknamed the “ugly stepchild” of the laboratory. Many are quick to note that it’s just a screening tool—with an emphasis on “just.” But in recent years, urinalysis has been quietly tiptoeing into a new era.
March 2014—If you had a colleague who was brilliant, experienced, and insightful, but who for some reason didn’t volunteer helpful information, you might agree with the assessment of Michael Laposata, MD, PhD: “If you only wait for people to ask you a question, that’s crazy.”
February 2014—Orchard Software collaborates with Memorial Sloan-Kettering: Orchard Software has entered into a long-term agreement with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center under which Orchard will supply the cancer center with its Orchard Harvest lab information system while working with Memorial Sloan-Kettering to enhance and further develop its lab informatics products.
February 2014—What would you give for a little more time? Take a vital task that you do every day, every week, or every month, and do it about three times faster—with no effect on the quality of the outcome. No, this is not another comfort-food recipe from Rachael Ray’s best-selling series of 30-Minute Meals cookbooks.
February 2014—When it comes to breast cancer, medical oncologists have two “wish lists” for their pathologist colleagues. Here’s the short list of test results they need when they sit down with a patient, courtesy of Melody Cobleigh, MD. “ER, PR, HER2,” says Dr. Cobleigh, professor of medicine and the Brian Piccolo Chair for Cancer Research, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago. It’s a direct, unassailable answer. But so, too, is saying that the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand caused World War I.
February 2014—Early stage triple-negative breast cancer treated with mastectomy without adjuvant radiotherapy; Predicting recurrence after limited resection versus lobectomy for small lung adenocarcinoma; HER2 amplification in gastric cancer: a rare event restricted to intestinal phenotype; Gleason score undergrading on biopsy sample of prostate cancer; Fallopian tube intraluminal tumor spread from noninvasive precursor lesions; Factors that influence histopathological diagnosis of differentiated vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia; Impact of molecular analysis on final sarcoma diagnosis; Distinguishing primary bladder adenocarcinoma from secondary involvement by colorectal adenocarcinoma; Determining if close margins warrant postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy in oral squamous cell carcinoma; Three methodological approaches for defining basal-like lesions in triple-negative breast carcinoma
