March 2025—Urinalysis reflex rules, reimbursement, instruments, research, and specimen handling and transport are some of what came up in the Jan. 15 roundtable with eight participants online and CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle leading the discussion.
February 2025—Genetic profiling has long had proven winners in oncology: somatic testing of tumors, and germline testing for surveillance and to identify potentially affected relatives.
February 2025—Eric Huang, MD, PhD, is the first to admit that when it came time to switch to primary HPV testing, his laboratory at the University of Washington faced fewer obstacles than most. Dr. Huang joined the university in 2018 as director of the cytopathology laboratory.
February 2025—In the 2024 accreditation program checklist edition, released Dec. 26, are new and revised requirements for chemistry, diagnostic immunology, and flow cytometry laboratories. Two of the flow cytometry requirements are now also in the anatomic pathology checklist.
February 2025—HER2 in predictive biomarker testing, HPV-related cancer testing guidelines, and the art of applying polygenic risk scores will be some of what’s heard in USCAP 2025 sessions next month in Boston.
February 2025—Intracranial mesenchymal tumors (IMT) are extremely rare and account for only 0.3 percent of soft tissue tumors. Most frequently, mesenchymal tumors occur in subcutaneous tissue; they are rarely described in the central nervous system. In addition, these tumors typically occur in young adults,1 with a median patient age of 14 (range: four to 70).
February 2025—Some of the CAP accreditation program requirements in the 2024 microbiology and transfusion medicine checklists, in the edition released Dec. 26, have been revised to simplify, clarify, and conserve resources. In transfusion, one new requirement was added to define policy requirements for the use of low-titer group O whole blood.
February 2025—Digital pathology, artificial intelligence, and anatomic pathology computer systems—seven participants in a Dec. 10, 2024 online roundtable talked with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle about their experiences, plans, and predictions. Large academic center practices and small pathology practices—they considered all perspectives. Here is what they told us.
January 2025—In the 2024 edition of the CAP accreditation checklists, released on Dec. 26, laboratories can expect to see small but significant changes to the all common, cytopathology, and microbiology checklists. These revisions and additions are meant to ensure test quality as more laboratories begin to offer primary HPV screening and p16/Ki-67 dual stain triage.
January 2025—Pathology informatics leaders at the University of Michigan are moving in steps to a fully digital practice as they put in place an innovative workflow for primary diagnosis. Fresh off their August launch of the new workflow program within their remodeled histology lab, informatics directors in the pathology department say Michigan Medicine is the first in the U.S. to have radiology and pathology operating in the same shared picture archiving and communication system, or PACS, and to implement the well-established DICOM standard for pathology workflow.
