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

Hear an expert discuss how to integrate Kappa and Lambda in situ hybridization testing into your standard hematopathology workflow to accurately assess B-cell and plasma cell clonality. You will also gain the skills to recognize testing pitfalls in challenging reactive versus neoplastic proliferations and apply ancillary tools to resolve complex cases.

December 2021—It is unclear whether HER2+ tumors expressing estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor—that is, triple-positive breast carcinomas—show unique morphologic and clinical features and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
December 2021—Advances in sequencing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing, have yielded many insights into the genomic landscape and clinical import of molecular findings in myelodysplastic syndromes and other myeloid neoplasms with myelodysplasia (MN).
December 2021—Like death and taxes, cyberattacks targeting health care organizations are a certainty, but taking proactive breach mitigation measures and developing a thorough response plan can lessen, or even prevent, a devastating blow.

Q. We use the CAP Competency Assessment Program to create quizzes to satisfy the problem-solving element of the CAP’s competency assessment requirements. Is there a requirement to create a new quiz each year or can the same quiz be given every year? Is it OK to use the same quiz for the initial competency and the annual competency? Read answer.
Q. Are there red blood cell parameters, such as RBC count or mean corpuscular volume, that can affect a platelet estimate? When determining a platelet estimate, should we always look at the same area of the slide regardless of the patient’s RBC, hematocrit and hemoglobin levels, and indices results? Read answer.
December 2021—In the COVID-19 pandemic and future pandemics, the existing expertise of clinical laboratories should be taken advantage of and labs should be enabled to validate and offer robust clinical assays, say the authors of “The Role of Clinical Laboratories in Emerging Pathogens—Insights from the COVID-19 Pandemic,” published Oct. 29 in JAMA Health Forum (2021;2[10]:e213154).
