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.

June 2023—As CAP TODAY assembled its annual guides to chemistry and immunoassay analyzers (for this issue and the July issue), publisher Bob McGonnagle brought together IVD manufacturers and lab leaders to talk about consolidation and ever-larger health systems, technology, efficiencies, and centralized and decentralized testing.
March 2023—Urinalysis was at the heart of a Feb. 7 discussion between CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle; Ron Jackups Jr., MD, PhD, of Washington University School of Medicine; and Jason Anderson of Sysmex America. “There’s a lot of room to explore what the optimal parameters are to use with the best specificity and sensitivity for a reflex to the sediment analysis or the culture,” Anderson said. Here’s what he and Dr. Jackups said about reflex testing, automation, and middleware.
January 2023—Automation and point-of-care, reflex, and viscoelastic testing were some of what came up when a group spoke with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle in late November about hemostasis testing. Also tossed in: Results reporting to the EHR, which “can always be improved,” said Eric Salazar, MD, PhD, of University of Texas Health San Antonio. And D-dimer, one of the pandemic’s “health care heroes,” said Nichole Howard of Diagnostica Stago. Here’s what they said about all that and more.
October 2022—New and better solutions for the hematology laboratory. That was at the center of a Sept. 2 virtual roundtable, led by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle. With him were Jonathan Galeotti, MD, of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, and representatives of Sysmex America, Siemens Healthineers, Beckman Coulter, and CellaVision. “It’s a new era in terms of what can happen in hematological data,” said Fernando Chaves, MD, global head of hematology, Siemens Healthineers.
July 2022—Point-of-care versus centralized testing, and automation, IT, and staffing. It all came together as industry executives and a laboratory director and a former medical director met with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on May 25, as CAP TODAY’s list of chemistry and immunoassay analyzers was going together. “I don’t worry much about the machines or reagents,” thanks to good-quality practices, said André Valcour, PhD, MBA, DABCC, of Labcorp, who noted the real focus is quality of information and information transfer. Susan Fuhrman, MD, formerly of OhioHealth, said, “We should always give our clinicians as much information as we can accurately produce and our reports should be as clear as we can make them.” And of the staffing crisis: “We have a perfect storm,” she said. Here is more of what they and the others had to say.
January 2021—COVID-19 and coagulation testing were up for discussion on Nov. 20 when six people joined CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle to talk about that and laboratory labor, relationships with industry and hospital administration, and the distribution of testing. “We’re working with all the manufacturers to support rapid point-of-care testing to manage hot spots that will pop up once there is a vaccine,” said Orchard Software’s Curt Johnson. With Johnson and McGonnagle on the call were Oksana Volod, MD, of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center; Neil Harris, MBChB, MD, of the University of Florida; Annie Winkler, MD, MSc, of Instrumentation Laboratory; Nichole Howard, MBA, of Diagnostica Stago; and Jason Lam, MBA, MLS, of Siemens Healthineers. Drs. Volod and Harris are members of the CAP Hemostasis and Thrombosis Committee.
