Molecular Pathology: is an emerging discipline within pathology that is focused on the study and diagnosis of disease through the examination of molecules within organs, tissues or bodily fluids. Molecular pathology shares some aspects of practice with both anatomic pathology and clinical pathology, molecular biology, biochemistry, proteomics and genetics, and is sometimes considered a "crossover" discipline. It is multi-disciplinary in nature and focuses mainly on the sub-microscopic aspects of disease.
As many parts of the northern hemisphere move into the colder months and indoors, SARS CoV-2 has begun a second infection wave that has exceeded the first surge of cases in many global regio...
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a key analyte for liquid biopsy samples. Due to extremely low concentration and high degree of fragmentation, the extraction of cfDNA is technically challenging. Her...
Ensuring that clinical tests are not affected by tumor heterogeneity requires a sampling methodology that captures the genomic, proteomic, and cellular diversity of entire solid tumors. Howe...
Three-dimensional (3D) cell culture spheroids and aggregates are preferred over monolayer cell culture due to their architectural and functional similarity to solid tumors. To study expressi...
Testing volumes need to increase by orders of magnitude in order to restore communities back to normality. This workshop focuses on solutions that equip laboratories to participate in expand...
In 2012, the Choosing Wisely initiative was commenced by the ABIM with numerous societies putting forward lists of overused tests or procedures. The Choosing Wisely movement has spread to nu...
The nuclear proliferation biomarker Ki-67 has multiple potential roles in breast and other cancers, both as a prognostic but also predictive marker. However, several studies have shown that...
Cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been steadily rising over the past decade with most common causes of injury observed among participants in contact sports, combat military personne...
Patient laboratory test results are significantly over-represented in electronic medical records, but significantly under-utilized in research. An important application of laboratory data is...
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is used to determine spatial relationships where we can identify the localization of target proteins in specific regions and cells of a tissue. IHC has been the go...
The opioid crisis has put significant strain on the healthcare system and resources, including the clinical laboratory which has seen significant increases in requests for urine drug screeni...
Clinical Laboratories have the opportunity to support value based health care by aligning with organizational strategies that focus on population health and creating meaningful insights usin...
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is destined to play a much greater role in chronic disease diagnosis and management. Advanced POCT systems are being developed to deliver less costly and more ac...
Date: November 2, 2020 Time: 8:00am PST. Rapid and accurate microbial diagnostic information can change treatment courses and outcomes for patients inflicted with infections. The limitation...
Precision oncology continues to evolve as additional clinically relevant biomarkers are identified. The challenges facing the clinical researchers include not only the ability to add additio...
