How to implement HPV DNA testing as a primary screening tool?

HPV DNA testing is shown to be significantly more effective compared to pap smear/cytology for cervical cancer screening. In this webinar, you will learn how to implement HPV DNA testing as a primary screening tool for cervical cancer. How to address multidisciplinary challenges during the transition phase from pap smear/cytology to HPV DNA testing? What are the considerations

Continuous process improvement in cytogenetics and molecular pathology

Continuous process improvement in cytogenetics and molecular pathology

Full presentation by Dr. Virginia (Jennie) Thurston delivered to healthcare and laboratory medicine leaders at the Roche Efficiency Days (RED) 2018: REDefining perspectives in Guangzhou, China. Esoteric laboratory testing, including molecular pathology and cytogenetics, is a frequently overlooked area for continuous process improvement as it is viewed as a relatively low volume, highly complex field in comparison to other laboratory
