February 2019—Impact of commercial laboratory testing on a care delivery system: Care delivery systems have become increasingly fragmented and complex, which impacts patient care. The amount of health care data generated has also created a problem by reducing the time devoted to direct patient care.
February 2019—Diagnostic algorithmic proposal based on IHC evaluation of invasive endocervical adenocarcinomas: The International Endocervical Adenocarcinoma Criteria and Classification was developed to separate endocervical adenocarcinomas into two main categories based on morphology: human papilloma virus-associated (HPVA) and nonhuman papilloma virus-associated adenocarcinomas.
February 2019—Evaluation of mutational processes and somatic driver mutations in cancer exomes: As next-generation sequencing-based tumor profiling gains popularity, multiple informative variables other than single-gene alterations will continue to be added to clinical reports.
February 2019—Digital pathology RFPs: from the questions to selections: To those who request the information and those who supply the information, requests for proposal, better known as RFPs, can be groanworthy. Yet laboratories planning to purchase a digital pathology system for clinical use should seriously consider going through the painstaking process, even if their institutions don’t require it, says Liron Pantanowitz, MD, vice chair of pathology informatics at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
FDA clears 2 of 3
ePlex blood culture ID panels:
January 2019—GenMark Diagnostics announced in December that it received FDA market clearance for its ePlex Blood Culture Identification Gram-Positive (BCID-GP) and Fungal Pathogen (BCID-FP) panels. GenMark’s third panel, ePlex Blood Culture Identification Gram-Negative (BCID-GN), was submitted to the FDA in September 2018 and is still under review. The fungal pathogens panel has broad coverage and includes many resistant and emerging strains, among them Candida auris, GenMark said in its statement. The company says that by coupling BCID panels with the ePlex Templated Comments software module, hospitals can enable immediate intervention linked to a diagnostic result and improve the effectiveness of antimicrobial stewardship initiatives.
12 assays for Atellica Solution:
Siemens Healthineers achieved 12 pre-market approvals from the FDA for its Atellica Solution infectious disease and oncology testing menu.

Q. Is it recommended that a hospital streamline its reference ranges for point-of-care and main laboratory tests? Read answer.
January 2019—Virtual tumor board platforms: a game changer for cancer case review: If Suneal Jannapurredy, MD, had been able to read the patient’s outside radiology report prior to breast tumor board, he would have re-examined the gross specimen to determine whether, as the other providers were now telling him, there was a second area of focus he hadn’t included in his presentation.
January 2019—RH genotype matching for transfusion support in sickle cell disease: In patients with sickle cell disease, Rh alloimmunization remains a challenge, despite the transfusion of serologic Rh C, E, and K antigen-matched red cells.
January 2019—Distinguishing patients with double somatic mismatch-repair mutations from those with Lynch syndrome: Lynch syndrome is the most common form of hereditary colon cancer. Germline mutations in the mismatch-repair (MMR) genes MLH1, MSH2 (EPCAM), MSH6, and PMS2, followed by a second hit to the remaining allele, lead to cancer development.
