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.

CAP TODAY Roundtables

Lab, vendor views on instruments, assays, and data

July 2024—Instruments, assays, patient flow, and IT were some of what laboratory directors and IVD company representatives spoke of when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle convened the group online on May 3. Here’s what they said about what instruments and assays are deployed where and the considerations that come into play in large health systems.

AP and CP reporting, from interfaces to IT wishes

March 2024—Anatomic and clinical pathology reporting—what’s working, what’s missing. Three pathologists (all board certified in informatics) and representatives of three information system companies met online Dec. 19 with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle to talk about reporting needs and what’s optimal. The first half of their discussion was published in the February issue, with CAP TODAY’s guide to anatomic pathology computer systems. The second half begins here.

With pipeline for pathologists, others lacking, eyes on AI

February 2024—Artificial intelligence and Medicare Advantage contracts were at the center of the Jan. 2 Compass Group virtual roundtable led by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle. “If you want to get into the AI world, there are many lanes you can swim in,” said Michael Feldman, MD, PhD, of Indiana University School of Medicine.

AP and CP reporting—the needs, the caveats

February 2024—Anatomic and clinical pathology reporting—what’s working, what’s missing. Three pathologists (all board certified in informatics) and representatives of three information system companies met online Dec. 19 with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle to talk about reporting needs, the changes, what’s optimal. The first half of their discussion begins here; the second half will be published in the March issue.

Panelists on viscoelastic and other coag assays

January 2024—Viscoelastic assays and other coagulation tests were front and center when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on Nov. 20 convened seven people in an online roundtable. Oksana Volod, MD, and Eric Salazar, MD, PhD, and five company representatives weighed in on, among other things, appropriate test use, automation, and laboratory-developed tests. What they said begins here.

Digital pathology and AI—drivers, budgets, and jobs

December 2023—Digital pathology and AI—the push, the potential, the changing questions, the reimbursement, and the caution. All that and more came up when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on Oct. 17 led a conversation online with pathologists and industry representatives.

Generative AI, from education to corner cases

Generative artificial intelligence—what it is, how it can be used in pathology, what stands in its way, why the excitement. CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle spoke about that and more with pathologists Bobbi Pritt, MD, MSc, and Scott Anderson, MD; Ajit Singh, PhD, of Stanford and Artiman Ventures; and Devon Snedden, a health care consultant in artificial intelligence. “There are a lot of excellent possibilities that we’re just starting to understand and explore for the field of pathology,” said Dr. Pritt of Mayo Clinic.

Minds shift on digital path, ‘massive change’ predicted

Is digital pathology on the move? Two who know it well say it is. Esther Abels, a precision medicine and biomedical regulatory health science expert who is CEO of SolarisRTC and former president of the Digital Pathology Association, and Michael Rivers, vice president/lifecycle leader of digital pathology at Roche Tissue Diagnostics, spoke in September with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle, who got their take on where things stand.

Reports revisited—panel on preferences and pain points

November 2023—Reports—integrated or otherwise—were up for discussion when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle convened online in October a group of informatics experts, who spoke of the need for simplicity in a time of growing complexity, ease of access, where Epic isn’t strong. The full conversation follows.

In hematology, making the most of automated solutions

October 2023—Hematology analyzers and the related workflow, expertise, efficiency, and IT matters were the topic of a roundtable when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle met online Aug. 29 with two pathologists and representatives from Horiba, Siemens, Sysmex, CellaVision, Sight, and Abbott. Their conversation follows.
Fernando Chaves, what are the advances in artificial intelligence in the field of hematology, particularly automated hematology, since we spoke during our roundtable at this time last year?
Fernando Chaves, MD, global head of hematology, Siemens Healthineers: Technology now enables full-field digital morphology, a full image of the entire slide scan. Now we can do with hematology what has been done for over a decade in surgical pathology.
