Div., HT(ASCP), Director of Education & Training, Lab Management Consultants In this age of healthcare regulatory standards and compliance, every aspect in diagnostic patient care must be developed, documented, and validated ‘before’ they can be used in testing and diagnoses. Procedures which were once deemed as ‘routine’, as in the... Glass Slides: Science of Surface Modification Andrew Lisowski , M.S., HTL (ASCP) Andrew will explain how glass is made and how we change its surface, so it is not inert.He will also review the common factors contributing to specimen loss and describe the benefits and dangers of the adhesives currently used. These modifications dictate the... Cytogenetics: A Blueprint for Building Quality, Interconnected and Efficient Laboratory Process April Schrank-Hacker , Ed.D., MSOD, CG(ASCP)CM April Schrank-Hacker will offer a holistic look at the Cytogenetics laboratory workflow to increase confidence and accuracy in the final diagnosis. She will discuss new perspectives on creating optimized, safe and reliable workflows that your lab could... The Cost of Reprocessing Herbert Skip Brown , M. Div., HT(ASCP), Director of Education & Training, Lab Management Consultants One of the most fundamentally critical elements of diagnostic histopathology is first the ability to suspend all cellular activity in tissue and prevent degradation, and secondly to process that specimen in a manner that facilitates subsequent steps such as... AP Lab Quality Journey – Aligning Administration, Lab Leadership and Pathologists to Raise the Quality Bar Anthony Magliocco , M.D. This presentation will review the challenges of creating a system to assess the quality and consistency of diagnoses produced by individual pathologists and discuss setting goals to improve the processes in anatomic pathology for enhanced patient safety. All... Why are Automation & Innovation Critical to the Histology Lab? William N. DeSalvo III , BS HTL(ASCP) There has always been pressure on the Histology Lab to do more with less money, less people and less time. Automation in Histology has somewhat stalled over the past few years and is difficult to implement. Automation is only a multi-disciplinary process to... The Impact of Decalcification on Staining Loralee McMahon , MS HTL (ASCP) Different types of cancers frequently metastase to bone tissue. Treatment planning decisions are often based upon histology and special staining of these distant sites of disease. These decisions may rely on the outcome of immunohistochemistry, in situ...
