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.
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.
July 2026—Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) with hypermutation is most commonly associated with DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency; however, defects in DNA polymerase proofreading represent an important alternative mechanism. Recognition of POLE-driven hypermutation has diagnostic and therapeutic implications, particularly in microsatellite-stable CRC.
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.
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.
June 2026—Despite elevated Lp(a) concentration having a high population prevalence of about 20 percent, the testing rate has been low, and that is about to change.
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.
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.
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.
June 2026—We present the case of a 75-year-old woman with a history of a pT4 colorectal adenocarcinoma who was status-post right hemicolectomy two years prior to the current care episode. She returned for urgent medical evaluation of recurrent abdominal pain, was diagnosed with a small bowel obstruction, and underwent exploratory laparotomy with small bowel resection and primary anastomosis.
