This session explores the evolving role of RAS in precision oncology, from the biology of RAS mutations to the expanding landscape of targeted therapies. Through expert presentations, real-world case discussions, and interactive audience polling, participants will examine best practices for RAS biomarker testing across solid tumors, including lung, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. The session will highlight practical considerations for tissue and liquid biopsy, strategies to address testing gaps, and the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure timely identification of patients who may benefit from RAS-targeted therapies.

In hematology, making the most of automated solutions

October 2023—Hematology analyzers and the related workflow, expertise, efficiency, and IT matters were the topic of a roundtable when CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle met online Aug. 29 with two pathologists and representatives from Horiba, Siemens, Sysmex, CellaVision, Sight, and Abbott. Their conversation follows.
Fernando Chaves, what are the advances in artificial intelligence in the field of hematology, particularly automated hematology, since we spoke during our roundtable at this time last year?
Fernando Chaves, MD, global head of hematology, Siemens Healthineers: Technology now enables full-field digital morphology, a full image of the entire slide scan. Now we can do with hematology what has been done for over a decade in surgical pathology.

Tests for paraneoplastic syndromes in neurology

September 2023—Laboratory testing for paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes is neither commonplace nor cheap. It also comes with its own enigmatical math, as Michael Levy, MD, PhD, recently experienced. As the director of the Neuroimmunology Clinic and Research Laboratory in Massachusetts General Hospital’s Department of Neurology, Dr. Levy keeps an eye on PNS laboratory testing (which is performed at Mayo Clinic) at his institution.

Many knots to untangle in lab test names

September 2023—Ambiguities, inconsistencies, omissions, and other defects in the naming of laboratory tests can send test orders and results interpretation awry, particularly with some of the most common tests. Even among clinicians and laboratorians working at the same hospital for years, smooth sailing is not guaranteed. The authors of a study published in Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine hope to change that. Their aim is to alert patient-facing providers and laboratories to the risks that ambiguous or nonstandardized laboratory test naming poses and to provide practical rules for minimizing those risks.

Lab’s steps to fewer contaminated urine cultures

September 2023—A casual comment made in a routine exchange in an Avera McKennan Hospital laboratory sparked a five-year campaign to bring down the urine culture contamination rate. “I feel like all I do is report contaminated cultures,” a microbiology technologist said in 2016.

People, partners, and platforms at the point of care

September 2023—Point-of-care testing—the requests and the committees that oversee them, the connectivity, what AI might bring. CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on July 21 met online with a laboratory operations director and a medical director from large health systems and with company representatives for a look at where things stand today. Their conversation follows.

Disruptive technologies—what impact on lab workflow?

September 2023—New from CAP Publications is Disruptive Technologies in Clinical Medicine, by Frederick Kiechle, MD, PhD. In his new book Dr. Kiechle says “disruptive technologies offer new paradigms in diagnostic medicine.” Technology-driven disruptions are stimulated by the need to improve patient care, he writes, and they have been “a feature of the practice of clinical pathology since the inception of the first clinical laboratory in 1895 at the University of Pennsylvania, the William Pepper Laboratory.”

AMP case report: Lung micropapillary adenocarcinomas revisited

September 2023—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 Henry Ford Hospital. If you would like to submit a case report, please send an email to the AMP at amp@amp.org. For more information about the AMP and all previously published case reports, visit www.amp.org.

Genetic counseling within the laboratory: For oncology cases, lab’s consult service plugs gap

September 2023—What happens when an oncologist cannot confidently determine what type of genetic test to order for their patient? Where can a provider turn if they do not know whether a genetic variant is clinically actionable? As genetic testing becomes a more integral part of personalized medicine and health care in general, there is a growing need to bridge the gap between those skilled in molecular diagnostics and those on the patient-facing side of care. In response to this need, the Center for Integrated Diagnostics (CID), a high-complexity molecular diagnostics laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital, created its Consultation Service.
