How rapid sequencing in the NICU plays out

February 2026—Rapid genome sequencing in neonatal intensive care units is a complex process involving a multidisciplinary team, including pathologists, genetic counselors, and clinicians. The goal is to identify genetic causes of complex medical conditions in newborns, often born prematurely with multiple health issues.

At USCAP, a close look at GI biomarkers

February 2026—At the USCAP 2026 meeting, two guidelines on gastrointestinal pathology biomarkers will be presented. The updated guideline on HER2 testing in gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma reaffirms IHC with follow-up ISH as the best method for …

Close-up on traditional lab biomarkers for MS

February 2026—The 2024 revision of the 2017 McDonald criteria for diagnosing multiple sclerosis allows the kappa-free light chain index to replace oligoclonal band detection in cerebrospinal fluid analysis.

Pathologists, vendors talk LIS-IMS integration

February 2026—Cybersecurity and image management are key concerns for laboratories adopting digital pathology and AI. While cloud-based systems offer enhanced security and scalability, onboarding new vendors and instruments remains challenging due to stringent security requirements and potential vulnerabilities.

From the President’s Desk

February 2026—The pathology community must embrace new technologies, such as digital pathology and AI, to avoid being left behind.

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

February 2026—A study of 42 thrombocytopenic neonates found that platelet transfusions increased platelet counts but did not significantly impact bleeding. Another study investigated the impact of probiotics on gut microbiota after colonoscopy.

Anatomic pathology selected abstracts

February 2026—A study introduced a computational framework to analyze collagen disorder architectural (CoDA) features in colon cancer patients, revealing significant associations with clinical, molecular, and genetic factors. Additionally, a dedicated histopathologic assessment of rituximab-associated CVID-like enteropathy highlighted key histologic features, emphasizing the importance of pathologist awareness of this entity.
