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.

From the President’s Desk: What’s the state of your state pathology society?
January 2020—Recently I attended and spoke at a meeting of the Georgia Association of Pathology. That might not sound like a big deal, but it was. This was an important occasion for me and my colleagues in Georgia because our state society had been dormant for the past decade. Thanks to the efforts of five CAP fellows and the CAP itself, we are back in Georgia.

January 2020—Pathologist Ron B. Schifman, MD, practices what he preaches and preaches about what others practice relative to implementing such computer-based test-utilization management techniques as soft stops, hard stops, and those that fall in between. In a 2019 American Association of Clinical Chemistry presentation on strategies and tactics for test-utilization management, and in an interview with CAP TODAY, Dr. Schifman offered insights into a variety of information technology-based interventions.

Use of thromboelastography to guide blood product transfusion
January 2020—Thromboelastography and rotational thromboelastometry provide insights into blood clot development, stabilization, and dissolution. The coagulation tests provide a tracing through the clotting process, but although they are similar, they are not interchangeable.

Distinct patterns of human liver regeneration following massive hepatic necrosis
January 2020—Massive hepatic necrosis is a rare and often fatal complication of various liver injuries. However, some patients survive by spontaneous hepatic regeneration. It is known that surviving hepatocytes or progenitor cells, or both, can participate in this process, but the mechanism of hepatic recovery is vague.

Virtual staining of tissue slides to conserve precious diagnostic samples
January 2020—Precise classification of neoplasms improves risk stratification and the ability to apply targeted treatment options, enhancing patient care. These granular diagnostic classifications increasingly rely on molecular findings that go beyond what the microscope shows the pathologist.
