Grading, staging papillary urothelial carcinoma

July 2026—Grading of papillary urothelial carcinoma can sometimes be challenging because it requires categorizing discretely a continuous spectrum of tumors. In the view of Lara Harik, MD, discovering biomarkers that can predict progression would be an ideal solution for papillary urothelial carcinoma, especially for tumors that are difficult to grade. “Maybe the use of cell-free DNA in the near future,” she said, “could reveal which of these tumors are at risk for progression.”

New instruments, innovation as problem solvers

July 2026—Roche’s new Cobas Mass Spec solution will be on display this month at the ADLM meeting, as will Diasorin’s new Liaison Nes, Siemens Healthineers’ Atellica DT 250, and much more. CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle spoke online in late May with representatives of Roche, Diasorin, Sebia, and Siemens Healthineers about how their instruments will solve some of laboratories’ pressing problems. The conversation follows.

In select patients, taking aim at metastatic CRC

July 2026—Being able to distinguish the subset of patients with stage IV colorectal cancer who have a chance at cure with ablation or resection from those who do not has been the aim of two University of Chicago physicians who developed a biomarker for colorectal liver metastases called PersonaCRC.

Drawing learners and leaders to pathology: The impact of CAP Foundation awards and grants

July 2026—A medical student walks into the CAP annual meeting for the first time, nervous and not sure what to expect. She’s there because of a Medical Student Travel Award she almost didn’t apply for. By the end of the week, she has an interest in pursuing pathology. That is what the CAP Foundation had in mind when it began in 2018 to offer that student travel award. Now, for the first time, after an analysis of CAP Foundation data and a long-term survey of past recipients of that award and others, we have the data to report their impact.

Early days for menin inhibitor monitoring

June 2026—In the cat-and-mouse maneuverings that often propel new cancer treatments, menin inhibitors are proving to be successful epigenetic therapies for acute leukemia. Last November brought FDA approval of revumenib for treatment of adults and children (one year and older) with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia with NPM1 gene mutations.

IHC workup of lung neuroendocrine neoplasms

June 2026—The immunostaining landscape for lung neuroendocrine tumors continues to evolve, and Humberto Trejo Bittar, MD, in a CAP25 lung cancer session last fall, captured where it stands.

Lab leaders weigh alternative revenue models

June 2026—Alternative revenue models for laboratories, specifically laboratory testing for functional health and other health care practices that traditionally haven’t been part of conventional medicine, came up in a May 6 online Compass Group roundtable, led by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle.

Health insurer consolidation: a case of the tail wagging the dog

June 2026—The primary reason for health insurance is to help patients pay for medical care when they need it. Beneficiaries pay their premiums when healthy to receive payouts when sick. Sounds simple, and at its inception it was. Dallas, Tex., gave birth in 1929 to the precursor of the Blue Cross system. Plan members paid in, and if hospitalization was needed, care was rendered and fees were paid by the community pool. But we’ve come a long way since then.
