About the event

  • Session 1 - 245-301 - Friday morning  - 3 CEU - 
  1. A) The Dollars and Cents of Laboratory Finance - Mark Barglowski – Providence Medical Center 
  2. B) Advances in ANA patterns and ICAP Clinical Implications - Justin Hanenberg - Sebia - ANA HEp-2 IFA plays a crucial role in evaluating and diagnosing various autoimmune diseases. This webinar will review and discuss the history of autoimmunity and it's causes. We will cover ANA HEp-2 IFA pattern recognition and education on Nuclear, Cytoplasmic and Mitotic patterns and the phases of mitosis based on updated ICAP nomenclature.
  • Session 2 - 245-302 - Friday afternoon- 3 CEU
  1. Select and Bioterrorism Agents - 3 CEU - Nicole Green, PhD - Director, LA County Public Health Laboratory.
  • Session 3 -  245-303 - Saturday morning - 3 CEU
  1. A) Advancements in Diagnostic Testing: Learning from the Past and Navigating the Future of Clinical Laboratories - Dr Payman Nasr - California State University Dominguez Hills - The clinical laboratory has transformed from basic diagnostic techniques to advanced, high-throughput technologies. This presentation explores key milestones in this evolution, focusing on the impact of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and digital PCR (digiPCR). These technologies are crucial in precision medicine, enhancing diagnostic accuracy, enabling personalized treatment plans, and improving patient outcomes.
  2. B) Therapy Resistance in Multiple MyelomaI - Dr Jahan Abdi - California State University Dominguez Hills - Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic neoplasm primarily confined to bone marrow and characterized by clonal proliferation of malignant plasma cells. MM clone displays a high level of genome instability and a range of genetic and chromosomal alterations. This clonal population of MM cells also produces immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs) causing diverse complications. Current evidence suggests that bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) play crucial roles in MM pathogenesis through unclear mechanisms largely explaining the disease relapse. MM is still incurable despite our deep understanding of molecular pathogenesis of this disease.
  3. C) Topic and Speaker – To be Determined.
  • Session 4 - 245-304 - Saturday afternoon  - 3 CEU
  1. A) Topic and Speaker – To be Determined
  2. B) The Role of D-dimer for VTE Screening to Minimize Unnecessary Imaging Studies - Paul Riley- Stago - D-Dimer measurement, in conjunction with a standardized assessment of Pre-test Probability (PTP), is successfully used to exclude venous thromboembolism (VTE) without the need for imaging studies. Our presentation will discuss D-dimer testing applications, including the importance of using a reagent with a high specificity in order to prevent unnecessary imaging procedures.
