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.

Microscope to image—big lift but also a blueprint

April 2024—The Food and Drug Administration in February cleared Proscia’s Concentriq AP-Dx digital pathology software for the purpose of primary diagnosis. Shortly after, Proscia cofounder and CEO David West spoke with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle about achieving new efficiencies, elevating pathology, the heterogeneous nature of the pathology community, and being able to learn from digital pathology’s early adopters. “Laboratories and pathologists going digital don’t have to be first anymore,” West said.

Billing headwinds grow stronger for labs

April 2024—In billing for pathology and laboratory services, the hurdles are only getting higher. Narrow networks, prior authorizations, claims denials. Payers “have deeper pockets and figure they can outlast us,” said Joe Saad, MD, chair of the CAP Council on Government and Professional Affairs, in a Feb. 14 roundtable led online by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle. He and others talked about AI, digital pathology codes and molecular Z-Codes, biomarker testing, and unity within the laboratory community.

How Duke’s molecular diagnostics lab retains and trains

April 2024—Too few people, too much to do. In that, Duke Health’s molecular diagnostics laboratory is no different from any other laboratory. But competing for staff on the basis of money alone is out. “The reality is that in today’s labor market, any molecular technologist can always find a job that pays more,” says Barbara Anderson, PhD, MB(ASCP)CM, analytical specialist in Duke’s molecular diagnostics laboratory, Division of Molecular Pathology, Genetics, and Genomics.

Use of molecular techniques to solve a challenging case of primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma

April 2024—Primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) is a newly recognized, distinctive subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This low-grade lymphoma predominantly presents as papules or nodules within the skin of middle-aged adults. Formerly grouped under the extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) category, the World Health Organization’s fifth edition classification of hematolymphoid tumors now recognizes PCMZL as a distinct entity.

A how-to guide to quality management in clinical labs

CAP Publications released this month its newest book, Quality Management in Clinical Laboratories: Optimizing Patient Care Through Continuous Quality Improvement. It is a second edition; the first was published in 2005. Twenty-one contributors cover everything from laboratory staff and informatics to all phases of testing and the laboratory quality management plan.

From the President’s Desk

April 2024—When Tip O’Neill, former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, said many years ago that all politics is local, he was talking about how elections, legislation, and all of politics affect people where they live. I believe the concept applies just as much to pathology advocacy. When it comes to the issues we care about for our profession and for our patients, our efforts in advocacy, lobbying, educating, and persuading all need to happen at the local level just as much as at the national level.

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

April 2024—Neonatal anemia is a common comorbidity of premature infants and may result from certain obstetric conditions or diseases, or, in the case of iatrogenic anemia, from multiple phlebotomies in the first days of life. Once infants enter the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), they undergo a series of laboratory tests at baseline and then as needed for treatment or monitoring. These tests commonly include blood cultures, CBCs, coagulation profiles, metabolic screens, blood gases, blood glucose, and chemistry profiles. Phlebotomy-associated blood loss is more clinically relevant in lower birth-weight neonates since they have lower total circulating blood volumes. When blood is drawn from an indwelling umbilical catheter, even more blood is removed due to the need to flush residual intravenous fluid from the line.

Anatomic pathology selected abstracts

April 2024—Fumarate hydratase-deficient renal cell carcinoma is a rare and distinct subtype of renal cancer caused by FH gene mutations. FH negativity and s-2-succinocysteine (2SC) positivity on IHC can be used to screen for FH-deficient renal cell carcinoma (RCC), but their sensitivity and specificity are imperfect. The expression of AKR1B10, an aldo-keto reductase that catalyzes cofactor-dependent oxidation-reduction reactions, in RCC is unclear. The authors compared AKR1B10, 2SC, and FH as diagnostic biomarkers for FH-deficient RCC. They included genetically confirmed FH-deficient RCCs (n=58), genetically confirmed TFE3 translocation RCCs (TFE3-tRCC; n=83), clear cell RCCs (n=188), chromophobe RCCs (n=128), and papillary RCCs (pRCC; n=97).
