Learning Objectives:
  • Explain how transparency and manufacturer partnerships improve quality, consistency, and decision-making confidence in specimen management.
  • Evaluate blood collection tubes beyond cost and commodity assumptions, incorporating clinical impact and risk into decision-making.
  • Assess the potential risk points when using a blood collection device that has not been cleared for a specific purpose.

Roundtable presenters Nick Fingland, PhD, PMP, Senior Director, R&D Operations and Science, BD, and Chris Farnsworth, PhD, D(ABCC), Section Head of Clinical Chemistry, Professor of Pathology and Immunology, Washington University School of Medicine.

In molecular testing labs, gaps between actual and desirable LIS capabilities
December 2018—Flashback to 2013: Alexis B. Carter, MD, then director of pathology informatics at Emory University Hospital, was contemplating whether other pathology labs nationwide were facing the same challenges managing molecular testing data as she and her colleagues. So she decided to find out. Dr. Carter conducted a survey, and the responses confirmed her suspicions: Most laboratory information systems fall short in providing the infrastructure for complex molecular and genomic testing.

From the President’s Desk: Embracing our future at CAP18

December 2018—The CAP Curriculum Committee chaired by Sarah M. Bean, MD, follows a competency-based model to build an annual meeting program that is practical, prescient, and diverse. The committee is balanced demographically, experientially, and scientifically. Whatever the topic, there is someone who can speak to it.

Prostate cancer screening with PSA test: systematic review and meta-analysis

December 2018—Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer-associated mortality among men worldwide. The use of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to screen for prostate cancer is intended to detect the cancer at an early stage to reduce overall and disease-specific mortality. However, evidence that PSA screening for prostate cancer saves lives is somewhat lacking.

Anatomic pathology selected abstracts

December 2018—Applying deep convolutional neural networks to diagnostic breast biopsies: The breast stromal microenvironment is a pivotal factor in breast cancer development, growth, and metastases. Although pathologists often detect morphologic changes in stroma by light microscopy, visual classification of such changes is subjective and nonquantitative, limiting its diagnostic utility.

December 2018—Profiling of chromatin-accessibility landscape of primary cancers: The chromatin-accessibility profiles generated in this study by The Cancer Genome Atlas represent the largest pan-cancer effort to characterize the regulatory landscape of human cancers. The study primarily used an assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq).
