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.

June 2015—Like laboratorians, filmmakers split their workflow into three phases. In film, they are pre-production, production, and post-production. When flubs occur on a movie set, “We’ll fix it in post,” often said sardonically, is the fallback game plan to keep things on schedule and use visual and sound effects to cover up mistakes.
June 2015—Keep close eye on payments to physicians; NIST releases first ‘genome in a bottle’; For blood supply safety, time for technology mandate; CE for NSCLC liquid biopsy; Siemens launches handheld coagulation analyzer
June 2015—Sharon Cox, MT(ASCP)SM, has a passion for the correct count. Charged with managing the laboratory supply inventory as core lab supervisor at Saint Francis Health System in Tulsa, Okla., she knows the right tally matters. Get it wrong and the lab can wind up with too little of what is needed. That can mean big overnight shipping charges when things run out unexpectedly. To avoid that outcome, the lab may order more supply than necessary, which leads to a different kind of problem.
June 2015—Can IgA-deficient patients who require transfusion receive blood only from donors who are also IgA deficient? Patients who are IgA deficient and do not have a history of a prior anaphylactic transfusion reaction …
June 2015—Consortium gaining ground in quest for interoperability; Xifin purchases VisualShare; CDC releases update on electronic lab result reporting to public health agencies; Enzo Life Sciences releases ELISA plate reader app; Orchard Software features white papers on website; Imprivata expands reach with acquisition of HT Systems; Sampleminded teams up with Exact Sciences
June 2015—A 20-year-old woman who had returned to the U.S. after two months of hiking in Western Australia presented with three days of acute febrile illness—fever, rash, headache, nausea, and muscle and joint pain. Testing for common infectious causes of acute febrile illness, including Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and human immunodeficiency virus, all turned up negative. While the woman was in Australia, she had been warned about an ongoing outbreak of an exotic alphavirus, Ross River virus, in the region where she was hiking.
June 2015—HbA1c, creatinine, testosterone, vitamin D, lipids, and maybe albumin. If you know what the common thread is among these analytes, then you may be familiar with the CAP’s Accuracy-Based Programs and their evolution over the past couple of decades.
June 2015—It was a call he dreaded making. It was the late 1990s. Volkan Adsay, MD, was following up on a former patient who had been diagnosed eight years earlier with pancreatic cancer, one related to an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. The patient’s medical record noted that despite chemotherapy, the prognosis was grim.
May 2015—M. Elizabeth H. Hammond, MD, is no mind reader. But approach her at a conference or meeting, and she has a pretty good idea what you’re going to ask her. “I was the chair for the 2007 and 2013 ASCO-CAP HER2 guideline, and since that time, the most common question I get from individuals is, ‘How do you know the guideline is making any difference?’” says Dr. Hammond, who is a professor of pathology and adjunct professor of internal medicine at the University of Utah School of Medicine and a consulting pathologist, Intermountain Healthcare.
May 2015—Quality control is second nature and part of the air that laboratories breathe. So it’s no surprise that QC should be subject to quality checks of its own, as one of the pivotal checklist areas that CAP’s Laboratory Accreditation Program focuses on during inspections.
