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.

November 2020—Qiagen plans to launch a test that can detect SARS-CoV-2 antigens in people with active infections in less than 15 minutes and process, on average, 30 swab samples per hour using a small digital detection system. The test is expected to become available in the fourth quarter of this year.
November 2020—The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute released two new guidelines, MM13: Collection, Transport, Preparation, and Storage of Specimens for Molecular Methods, 2nd ed., and GP42: Collection of Capillary Blood Specimens, 7th ed.
November 2020—Hologic’s Aptima SARS-CoV-2 assay, which initially received FDA emergency use authorization in May, is now authorized for testing people without symptoms or other reasons to suspect COVID-19 infection.
October 2020—Agilent Technologies released the SureSelect XT HS2 RNA reagent kit. The kit enables users to accurately profile gene expression and detect RNA fusions using low-input FFPE samples and aims to significantly improve efficiency, especially in labs that process both DNA and RNA samples for next-generation–sequencing applications.
October 2020—Bio SB launched its Fast Mohs PolyDetector Plus Detection System, a highly sensitive nonbiotin monovalent Fab micropolymer IHC detection system for the detection of IVD antibodies for melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. It is intended for the detection of difficult nuclear targets such as androgen receptor, Ki-67, p40, p63, and SOX10.
October 2020—Diazyme Laboratories announced it received FDA emergency use authorization for the Diazyme DZ-Lite SARS-CoV-2 IgM CLIA test. The test is highly sensitive and specific and does not cross-react with the HKU1, OC43, NL63, and 229E coronavirus strains.
October 2020—A ready-to-use microprotein standard kit is available from Verichem Laboratories. The kit is intended for the calibration verification of total protein and albumin concentrations in urine and cerebral spinal fluid. The five-level set provides 10 certified concentrations in an azide-free liquid format. The kit is suitable for use with turbidimetric and colorimetric testing methods and incorporates human protein components. Shelf life is 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored at 2° to 8°C.
October 2020—Accumen announced a partnership with medical equipment manufacturer Spectrum Solutions to provide saliva testing kits for detecting COVID-19.
October 2020—According to a recent NPJ Genomic Medicine paper (Jezkova J, et al. 2020;5:28), Oxford Gene Technology’s CytoSure Constitutional v3 array design significantly improved reporting rate and proved to be a powerful tool for the detection of small pathogenic intragenic deletions and duplications in developmental disorder research. The paper was led by a consortium of National Health Service genomic medicine centers in the U.K.; it compared the enhanced exon-level gene coverage of the v3 array with a conventional array design.
October 2020—ARUP Laboratories now offers COVID-19 testing using saliva specimens. The laboratory will perform the test only on saliva specimens collected using an ARUP collection kit with a health care provider present.
