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.

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.

January 2024—Thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor (TSDUT), formerly known as SMARCA4-deficient thoracic sarcoma and SMARCA4-deficient thoracic sarcomatoid tumor, is a relatively newly defined entity with a distinct clinical history, morphology, immunohistochemical profile, molecular findings, and clinical behavior.
January 2024—The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) is a widely endorsed and globally adapted standardized reporting system of thyroid fine-needle aspiration specimens.
January 2024—Urinary cytology is widely used to screen for high-grade urothelial carcinoma (HGUC) and to monitor for recurrence. Several reporting systems have been proposed over the past few decades, but The Paris System (TPS) for Reporting Urinary Cytology is the most widely applied worldwide.
August 2023—We discuss in this article a common problem that all cytopathologists come across frequently in their practice: tumors of unknown primary origin involving body fluids and other sites. Metastatic tumor cells can disseminate and colonize discontinuous secondary body sites.1 Such tumor metastases may be the patient’s initial presenting complaint to a family physician for deep-seated tumor primaries such as ovaries, pancreas, liver, and certain non-obstructive gastrointestinal tumors.
August 2023—Cytology gynecologic statistical laboratory data must be analyzed in the context of changing screening modalities and patient populations. This is especially important with the increasing use of primary high-risk HPV screening because diagnostic metrics will be markedly different in that patient population.
August 2023—Accurate and timely diagnosis is the cornerstone of effective patient care, particularly in the field of pulmonary pathology. To address the challenges health care professionals face in diagnosing and reporting respiratory conditions, the International Academy of Cytology, together with the International Agency for Research on Cancer, recently developed the World Health Organization Reporting System for Lung Cytopathology
August 2022—The protocol for the reporting of cervicovaginal cytology, the first in a series of CAP cytopathology protocols, became available for use in a synoptic format on June 22. This protocol is a collaborative effort, based on input from past and present members of the CAP Cytopathology Committee and prepared in conjunction with the CAP Pathology Electronic Reporting Committee. It was presented via webinar to the CAP House of Delegates on March 31. A two-week open comment period followed; all comments were reviewed and appropriate changes were incorporated into the protocol.
August 2022—The ability to make a definitive diagnosis of mesothelioma on pleural fluid cytology has been questioned and debated for a long time. The 2018 American Society of Clinical Oncology clinical guidelines limit the cytological diagnosis of pleural fluid specimens only as an initial screening test for mesothelioma. Monaco, et al., discuss in their article the appropriate use of ancillary studies (immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization studies) to make a definitive diagnosis of mesothelioma in small tissue samples, which are often processed as cell blocks. The authors recommend a stepwise approach starting with immunohistochemistry for BAP1 and, next, MTAP in cases of atypical mesothelial proliferations where the suspicion for malignant mesothelioma is high.
May 2022—Substantial progress has been made during the past several years in diagnosing and treating various illnesses. Advances in genetic and genomic science; imaging and localization devices; the use of minimally invasive diagnostic sampling procedures; diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive testing; and personalized therapeutic options—all have changed the pattern of the practice of medicine and how patient care is provided.
May 2022—The ineffectiveness of the U.S. health care system is well documented. The United States consistently allocates more resources for health care compared with other industrialized countries, while not holding the top spots for desired outcomes. A significant percentage of Americans is underinsured or uninsured, and access to quality care is widely asymmetrical among different racial and ethnic groups. Early in the pandemic, COVID-19 highlighted these health inequities in which Blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans, and immigrants were the populations to disproportionately experience disparities related to burden of disease and mortality.
