August 2023—Anatomic pathology laboratories—the pressures, the promise of technology to alleviate them, and the seemingly unprecedented rates of change. CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle gathered pathologists and company representatives online on June 21 to talk about it all. From pathologist coverage to IT, from tumor boards to questions job candidates in pathology should ask, here’s what they told us.
August 2023—No jams, downtime, or lost time. Plenty of savings, speed, and employee satisfaction. Users of what General Data calls its next-generation cassette printer for histology laboratories say they’ve seen all that and more.
CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. The following report comes from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.
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 2023—Peachy Ridgway Gilmer Jr., MD, a member of the CAP Board of Governors from 1985 to 1991, died on June 18 at age 90. Dr. Gilmer was vice chair of the CAP Council on Education and Membership Services and a member of several CAP groups: the Commission on Laboratory Accreditation, the Council on Quality Assurance, and the Election Oversight, Planning and Priorities, and Surveys committees.
July 2023—As she surveys the opioid epidemic in North America, Christine Snozek, PhD, D(ABCC), could be tempted to think that a ripped-from-the-headlines reality has landed in clinical laboratories as well as on TV crime dramas. With the number of opioid-related deaths increasing in recent years, particularly since the start of the pandemic, drug testing demands have increased for labs as well, says Dr. Snozek, codirector of clinical chemistry and support services and director of point of care and central processing at Mayo Clinic in Arizona. If only she could turn to the entertainment industry for a technology-based solution. “I wish we had CSI lab capabilities,” she says, referring to the long-running police procedural. “You could run a sample and find all the drugs known to man on one test. If they could go ahead and release that technology, that would be wonderful,” jokes Dr. Snozek. Given that laboratories are unlikely to take a meeting with network executives, Dr. Snozek and others in the field will have to look elsewhere.
July 2023—As the COVID-19 federal public health emergency drew to a close in mid-May, industry experts explained what will and won’t change for the laboratory and weighed the fallout from the drop-off in SARS-CoV-2 testing.
July 2023—The human microbiome has been called the forgotten organ, and at one time it was. But not in the past 10 years. James Versalovic, MD, PhD, made that clear in his talk at the Association for Molecular Pathology meeting last year.
